U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday delayed his new 25% tariffs on most Mexican exports to the United States for four weeks after hearing directly from Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum on how her government had helped curb the flow of migrants and the deadly opioid fentanyl into the United States.

    Even if the vote was not tampered with, only 22% of the US population voted for him. The majority don’t want him, and even those that voted for him are quickly realizing the mistakes they made.

    The problem now, is the country doesn’t really have a playbook for how to deal with this. Impeachment is meaningless as the DoJ Senate has to actually press charges and never has. The Supreme Court is a useless pile of corrupt shit. We’ve not degraded far enough yet for the military to justify removing him from power, which I don’t believe has ever been tested before.

    Couple that with a tepid Democratic party that thinks if they just sit there in pink and hold up signs, somehow some magic law faerie will come down and fix things instead of taking any kind of action. It’s a cocktail of fail.

    The one thing that orange bloated idiot does well, is do things that are off-script.

    Individual citizen protest is made difficult by the sheer size of the country and that everyone’s healthcare is bound to employment.

    Edit: Said DoJ but should have said Senate. My bad. Thanks @[email protected].

      Impeachment doesn’t require the DOJ. We would Just need the house to send the articles of impeachment to the Senate. Regardless the house is mainly controlled by Rs so I doubt they would impeach, and the Senate is also Republican controlled meaning Trump wouldn’t even be removed if he was impeached
