“They told me I needed congressional approval” discussing shuttering the department of education “I told her just do it don’t worry about it. Just do it.” Okay so we have the president on video confessing to breaking the law. What happens now? Nothing right?

Unfortunately, yeah. Thank SCOTUS on 1 July 2024, Trump v. United States. https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/23pdf/23-939_e2pg.pdf That is the so-called kingmaker decision, where the Supreme Court, in an opinion written by Chief Justice John Roberts, decided that the President cannot face legal repercussions for "official actions" performed while in office.  If the blood just drained from your face because you are having difficulty wrapping your head around the ghastly scope of how the courts are supposed to make the decision about whether a Presidential action was "official" or "unofficial," the liberal minority of justices echoed your horror during oral arguments. So, no, unless there is a new Constitutional amendment as soon as the new President is sworn in that explicitly recants the Supreme Court's opinion, even the admission of an illegal behavior is insufficient to charge the President with criminal behavior according to the currently standing legal framework conjured from the Roberts court's ass. Now, the inverse of this is that the next President could also order and they'd be in the clear, legally, according to SCOTUS's decision.  They won't, of course. This administration is going to get away with all of it, because when the Dems win power back they will tie their own hands behind their backs and, as is tradition, put in their ceremonial blindfolds. Anyway, f*** the Roberts court!

If the President is not allocated that responsibility by the Constitution, then it's not an official act of the President, it's just a crime committed by the person serving as the current President.

No that would make objective logical sense, scotus would never agree to that conclusion.

slight_accent Apr 3, 2026 +1
SCOTUS reserved for themselves the power to decide what is and what is not "official" on a case by case basis. Leaving them the ability to allow anything republicans do and deny anything democrats do.

Andrew Jackson did the same thing forever ago. "The court has made their decision, now lets see them enforce it." The system is broken. The judiciary is a failed institution with no enforcement power. There is no mechanism to hold the president to account if he decides to continue an illegal action. There are US martials, but I don't see that as viable.

Nothing without impeachment first. But this would be an impeachable offense.

President Trump said "when someone's nice to me (assuming transactionally speaking), I'll do anything for them, I don't care if they're a bad person or not". Let that sink in Evangelicals. If you elevate his Ego or Finances enough he'll do anything for you even if you're Satan himself.

They're stupid collection of fairy tales that are thousands of years old TELLS THEM to watch out for someone EXACTLY like Trump... and when he shows up, they can't wait to crawl through broken glass to vote for him, and throw away anything and everything they have defending him. Remind me again why they should have any say in our government? And any tax exemptions? And any respect at all?

turdferguson3891 Apr 3, 2026 +11
The same people also acted like Jimmy Carter was history's greatest monster when he actually was a practicing Evangelical. Pretty sure Trump couldn't tell you a single thing that's in the bible.

My brother in Christ Hitler was a Christian. Slave owners in the US were almost exclusively Christian. Apartheid was orchestrated by Christians. All of the Abrahamic religions are evil death cults and they always have been.

Oppositeofhairy Apr 2, 2026 +17
They like to justify their hate by augmenting the words of the bible to justify their actions and thought process. They can claim Christian all they like but they have no correlation with Christian values I’m not religious whatsoever and haven’t been since I was a child. But I still don’t really have any issues with the faith or the foundations that they believe. Edit. Also Hitler was raised catholic, and openly denounced it as an adult. He did practice pantheism in his adult years and mocked the Christian views towards things.

Please don't downplay his actions. The child rapist in chief.

truthovertribe Apr 2, 2026 +16
I would say those who are reporting that he just admitted that he'd play with Satan himself if Satan gave him what he desires aren't downplaying his weak character at all.

DataDrivenDoc Apr 2, 2026 +26
Maga is a result of Christians being unchristian, not the cause. The rot likely started when Christians started worshipping people rather than the idea around the Constantine era...when Christianity became institutionalized and political rather than decentralized groups meeting to learn, talk, and practice the life and teachings of Jesus.
26
gameryamen Apr 2, 2026 +8
The Council of Nicea (where Christianity was formalized) was formed to settle a religiously coded political dispute, and resulted directly in excommunication of the loser. Half of the Old Testament is religiously decorated political history. Christianity has always been political, even if you believe in it.

You don't need Satan to explain that, they just choose to be bad people for the hell of it. They aren't tempted or influenced by some supernatural evil, they're just shitty people. The sooner we accept that and address the antisocial behavior epidemic in this country, the better.

Satan isn't real. Neither are any other gods for that matter. People suck. A few of them are nice tho.

FauxReal Apr 2, 2026 +267
Now combine his statements with people like Ann Coulter's recent remarks on the Triggernometry podcast. She said he's the most corrupt President and administration in US history but she doesn't care because he's "saving the country." It seems like the next step in normalizing further corruption so things like the rule of law don't matter as the ends justify the means. It's a recipe for the destruction of the America that serves its citizens.

how do people even square up "most corrupt administration in US history" with "fixing the country" like how? explain to me how that makes any f****** sense. (not you obviously, whoever said that f*** ass bullshit lol)

Because he's "hurting the right people."

You can literally find comments on the conservative sublistnook arguing that we need a dictatorship “for a couple of generations” to “save the country”. I found them under the article about how Trump’s birthright citizenship case is likely to go against him. These people are moral failures. Edit: found the comment, in full, they said > I’m increasingly convinced that in order for our grandchildren to have a representative democracy, we’re going to need a conservative dictatorship for a couple of generations. >user B0lt5L0053

“You know, we’re not supposed to be seduced that way, right? But I am. When someone’s nice to me, I love that person. Even if they’re bad people,” he confessed. “I couldn’t care less. I’ll fight to the end for them.” Please someone pay to plaster this on billboards in red states, preferably tailored to whichever business he favours that is actually making life worse there and taking away jobs.

edelweiss_pirates_no Apr 2, 2026 +119
Mamdani realized this. He got the report about how to handle Trump. Same report all the Tech Billionaires got and studied and strategized for how to get what they wanted. Trump has been "honey potted" by about a dozen spy agencies and organized crime. Trump is an easy mark and is not even a real person now. He is only a personality disorder constantly driven to comfort himself.

OMalleyOrOblivion Apr 2, 2026 +61
Evangelicals accepted this in 2016 in order to get Roe vs Wade overturned. They've justified it through "Even a sinner can do the Lord's work." By 2026 a lot of them have probably bought into Trump to relieve the cognitive dissonance of justifying such a terrible human being.

Imperfect vessel! IMPERFECT VESSEL! GOD CHOSE AN IMPERFECT VESSEL! No, not Obama or Harris or Biden or whatever. Only this guy is the imperfect vessel. And you know he's God's vessel because he wants to hurt the people we want to hurt. Just like Jesus said: "Torment your neighbor"

petitebutloud Apr 2, 2026 +4718
The fact that Trump openly admits he'll "fight to the end" for bad people just because they're nice to him explains so much about his relationships with dictators like Putin and Kim Jong Un. This isn't strategy, it's just narcissistic neediness that compromises our national security.

This quote should be a headline everywhere. It’s a f****** sound bite that summarizes his Ethos and the chaos we live in. Instead we will get “he says this about Iran war” or apparently immediately once this broke, “Trump fires” which is the whole f****** reason this reality TV trash is president.

I saw on Al Jazeera news yesterday that his cult thinks he’s transparent when he spews his bullshit and changes his story every day (war is over; we’re going to bomb them to oblivion) because he “speaks his mind openly” and this is what they *like* about him! JFC

His entire value system is just based on himself. If it's good for him then it is good. The pope isn't good for him so the pope is bad. But a Saudi Prince who tortures and dismembers people is good. It's a very simple system

And he's essentially saying the justices should have been in his pocket because he appointed them. And he's angry that they're not. The stupidity and the entitlement. He's a mob boss more than a president. Or a warlord, considering what he's doing in the world.

Proper-District8608 Apr 2, 2026 +44
He's always disliked the law of the land/constitution unless it could be twisted enough to give him a win. Generalization but even city zoning laws, financial banking rules all the way to Central Park 5.He showed this long b4 he was in politics. He being reelected bolstered his belief to king

He's essentially admitted to being bribed by several foreign governments, most recently Iran gave him something "very valuable".

charcoalist Apr 2, 2026 +39
It's a shocking admission, especially from someone who is nominally the president. "Here's how to manipulate me, it's quite simple." Just as one example, it's likely that Netanyahu complimented trump on the size of his ballroom, or some similar praise, and now we're at war with Iran.

I mean think about it. No one is nice to Trump because he's not a nice person. He's a despicable loser who raped kids. No one likes that. The minute ANYONE is kind to him of course he's going to love those people even though it's fake and really just a ruse to manipulate him.

The Daily Beast has a habit of doing that. One of their former editors called it a "high-end tabloid". Basically every single one of their headlines is so hyperbolic that it basically is an outright lie. And yet we constantly see their articles trending on the news and politics sublistnooks, because the Daily Beast pushes a narrative that suits most of our biases here. Including mine, so I get all excited until I see the source. I wish more sublistnooks would blacklist this drivel.

Cap_Shield Apr 2, 2026 +5
Fortunately not, though they want you to think it is. End of the day, it's performative. People often forget that Jesus himself said there is only one prayer you need, and when you say it, God knows what is needed. That's the Lord's Prayer, eg "Our Father, who art in heaven" etc etc.

I am not watching one hour of Trump, I can hardly take a single minute of that blathering nonsense, but do we know who he was talking to at the event (the "great show" guy?) when he decided to spout that he will fight to the end even if the person Trump was fighting for was a bad person as long as they are "nice to him"?

The White House posted and then rushed to delete an hour-long recording of an event with President Donald Trump that captured him lashing out at the Supreme Court after justices signaled expressed skepticism about his birthright citizenship case. The president privately hosted a group of MAGA pastors and religious allies Wednesday for an Easter luncheon at the White House. Trump made several bonkers remarks during the event, which was never meant to be seen by the public, as the White House quickly deleted the footage from its official pages. The footage, however, was saved online by Business Insider reporter Bryan Metzger. Read the full story, [here](https://www.thedailybeast.com/white-house-scrambles-to-wipe-trump-easter-meltdown-supreme-court-justices-footage/).

The secret service allowed someone to take a shot at a former president and current candidate. The most telling indicator is where are the agents who were responsible now? Six agents were suspended and reinstated. A director resigned. No one was fired.

Once it came out that Russia offered to stage an assassination attempt on Orban to help him win his election, I immediately assumed they made that same deal with Trump

It’s ironic because actual kings don’t have much real power these days. Their roles are largely ceremonial (depending on the country). He’s already far more powerful than most kings. But he’s too stupid to realise that.

Does Trump know his staff are removing his vids?   I think he should be told if that is going to make him angy. This is *serious* and these staff probably need to be removed.  XD

No one except the politics addicts actually reads those. Video of him actually saying it is far more damaging. It will be in attack ads leading up to the midterms.

Is it an attack? When someone rolls footage of a trump speech from april of an election year. It just seems like sharing of information to me.

“During the faith-focused event, the president also offered a candid glimpse into why he aligns himself with unsavory figures. “You know, we’re not supposed to be seduced that way, right? But I am. When someone’s nice to me, I love that person. Even if they’re bad people,” he confessed. “I couldn’t care less. I’ll fight to the end for them.”” The rest was just the typical whining and blowing smoke up his own a******.

“We’re not supposed to be seduced that way, right? But I am,” Trump said. “When somebody’s nice to me, I love that person.” “Even if they’re bad people, I couldn’t care less, I’ll fight ‘til the end for them,” he added. This is a scumbag, someone that has pardoned Medicare and Medicaid fraudsters responsible for scamming billions of our tax dollars.

'When someone is nice to me, I love that person, even if they are bad people. I will fight to the death for that person.' Donald Trump in other words; If you, as an American, do not like Me I won't fight for you. This is the statement from an American President.

He only cares about people kissing his ass. It's literally all Donald cares about. It's why he's so easily swayed into doing things the are incredibly harmful to the United States. As long as you do what he wants and is super nice to him, flattering him, he will do stupid shit that helps you personally in some way. It's been his entire life.

It’s 2026. Do they not understand how the internet works? The second that clip aired, it was screen-recorded, turned into a 10-hour loop on YouTube, minted as a "souvenir" on the blockchain, and shared in every group chat in the Midwest. Trying to "delete" a video in the digital age is like trying to take pee out of a swimming pool. Good luck with that.

There’s no loyalty to one’s country with this clown. People act as though he’s some complex sinister genius playing double agent for the majority of his life, but this is the real reason.
