Yeah... Kinda miffs people blaming the balances and checks. Like, they are there. They're just being ignored. Lmfao. Cause some dipshits gave the fascists all 3 branches

I feel like if controlling all three branches is enough to undo the whole constitution, it wasnt that good. If they wanted to prevent a tyrant, they shouldve thought to ask "what if that tyrant is popular"

They did dude. What do you think the 2nd amendment is for.

Also, you say that like controlling all 3 branches is a small thing. It means you control the whole government....

The weakness with the Second Amendment is that it effectively relies on a minority winning if it gets to that point. I hope I don't have to point out that wars that come down to numbers rarely end well

If the majority supports tyranny, were fucked anyways. Do you not understand that?
