And if you believe that apology, I have the deeds to a bridge in Manhattan I'd like to sell you. The symbolism of the stage was brought up befor CPAC started that year, yet never changed.

Republican Congressman Joe Wilson has announced a proposal for a new $250 bill featuring President Donald Trump.
“I am drafting legislation to direct the Bureau of Engraving and Printing to design a $250 bill featuring Donald J. Trump... Most valuable bill for the most valuable President!” Wilson said.
But it's not a cult.

Trump plans Nice New Law to repeal the first amendment

Trump suggests he may create a "NICE NEW LAW" in an attempt to silence criticism in the media. He said he would terminate the Constitution.

Medicaid...soon gone...was pro life.
Wow - he really is thinking ahead as to when inflation reaches Argentinian highs (that's the country another Trump supporter here wanted the USA to be compared to in regard to inflation).

It presumably is per person, so it could get a little pricey for an entire family. But is it even legal for a president to unilaterally create a new path to citizenship?

You're supposed to be taking your children's blood, which for Trampy leaves Barron, as Jnr is an al-Assad, Eric is too defective and the rest are icky girls he'd only catch cooties off of.

In the Graun, immigration experts have cast aspersions on this latest scheme, being as it's dearer than current schemes and leaves immigrants more open to tax liabilities than them too.

Basicly it's pushing the "vaccines aren't properly tested because they're not tested against placebo" nonsense in through the back door.
My guess is the only clause that will be enforced will be c) when mandatory testing against placebo for all approved vaccines (a highly unethical and impossible standard) is enforced.

Don't be silly - what he does might be criminal as all hell - you are just not allowed to investigate or prosecute.

Also means you can't take the fifth in testifying (against others involved) as self incrimination is no longer a risk.

Other countries are avoiding large bills as they make tracking dodgy money easier. Not that the City of London doesn't already enable that.

yes, you can. since there is no way to enforce any consequence.

That's the point, no self consequence for testifying, thus no self incrimination. Consequences and incrimination for others though, is not part of the 5th's protection. Granting immunity from prosecution was used quite effectively in getting a trestification foothold into the mafia.

Yeah, but if the toad doesn't want to talk how can you make him? Torture? You can't throw him in jail for it because he's immune to consequences.

It sadly all depends on republicans. They can impeach him. They can 25th him. Without them nothing will happen.
Trumps approval is going down, but it's surprisingly slow. He will reach 50% next week or so, and it took Biden 6 months, but still it's like 1% per week. Seems like opinions DO change, but only slowly.

As I recall immune to consequences for actions as part of the official duties as president. I don't recall contempt of court being such an official duty and who says it has to be while he is president. While lying might be considered part of the official duties as president, lying under oath particularly when not president is still perjury.
Just pointing out that immunity can be a double edged sword and has been used as such.
