Seems like the chances of Trump lying and putting in place the plan to keep it after he leaves are pretty dam high. Hard to imagine conservatives doing anything.
If it wasn't for his benefit, he would have declined it. 10 years of this buffoon is enough to know that he would not accept something that made him look this bad, unless he gained a lot from it.
Being spared the future expenses of owning, running and maintaining your own depreciating private 747 adds up to a lot of money.
Nothing to see here
It's just their version of defund the police.

luc this is a terrible blindspotw of yours
lets say the gov does control the plane afterwards, even so, why transfer it for his library usage instead of a more generalized allocation
surely it can be put to better use than for exclusive usage by the family of the former president
LOOOL
Apart from this one oversight, Lucioms politics are exemplary.

Trump is the 45th and 47th president.
86 is bartender/restaurant slang to cut someone off
Eighty Six... doesn't mean to cut someone off.
Eighty Six means to 'remove someone from'... to FORCE OUT.
Eighty Six also means, eight miles out and six feet under... to kill someone and bury there body.
I take it Gaetz will also be investigated for bragging about 86ing people?

Nice try, leftist. According to the founders of the American republic, which I commune with using necromancy, it is unconstitutional to indict people who call themselves conservatives.

Many examples of Republicans posting 86 46 or making shirts that said 86 46. There was a truck wrap that had a tied up Joe Biden on the tailgate.
Force out as in Impeach?
86 doesn't mean eight miles out and six feet under. Literally never has and never will. Such a weird thing to witness
Anyways, its beyond pathetic

Jokes aside, for a known public figure to joke about killing the president is bad form. However, outrage among many known conservatives pundits and politicians do fall a bit flat on this one, given MAGA's (including Trump himself) love for thinly veiled threats.

according to the constitution, in it's plain text, federal crimes prosecution is an executive power.
so yes if the admin is republican that can mean never to prosecute any republican for crimes against democrats is fully constitutional if the admin so chooses.
and no the DOJ, which doesn't appear in the constitution, isn't "independent" in any way or form. it executes the will of the president like every other part of the executive branch does.
is it a ******ed constitution for that aspect? perhaps.
still that's the rule of the law in the USA.

So u believe the executive power from the president isn’t to execute what congress says but to execute his own presidential will ?
Fwiw
The limits on the President's executive power in the U.S. are primarily established by the Constitution and the laws passed by Congress, as well as by the judicial system through its power of judicial review. While the President has broad powers, including enforcing laws and acting as Commander-in-Chief, these powers are not absolute.
Key Limitations:
Judicial Review:
The Supreme Court can declare executive actions unconstitutional, limiting the President's ability to act without legal basis.
Congressional Oversight:
Congress can override executive orders, deny funding for presidential initiatives, and impeach and remove the President.
Senate Approval:
The President's appointments, including Cabinet members and Supreme Court Justices, require Senate approval.
Separation of Powers:
The Constitution's separation of powers ensures that the legislative, executive, and judicial branches each have distinct responsibilities and powers.
Limitations on War Powers:
While the President is Commander-in-Chief, Congress holds the power to declare war.
Executive Orders:
While powerful, executive orders are subject to judicial review and can be overturned if they lack legal basis or exceed the President's authority.
Examples of Executive Power Limits:
The Korean War:
The Supreme Court ruled against President Truman's seizure of steel mills, demonstrating the limits on executive power to act without congressional authorization.
Congress overriding executive orders:
In 1992, Congress revoked an executive order by President Bush regarding a human fetal tissue bank, illustrating congressional oversight.
Judicial review of executive actions:
The Supreme Court has frequently reviewed executive actions, ensuring that they comply with the Constitution and laws.
In Italy the biggest single community of immigrants by ethnicity is the Romanian one, closely followed by the Moroccan one.
I always felt romanian immigrants were actually very good for our society and very close in values to what i would respect in people, keeping in mind most people are not very intelligent so you have to keep your expectations low.
Today i am reading analysts about the romanian elections saying that romanian living abroad (they keep the right to vote in the election) are overwhelmingly voting for the rightwing candidate according to polls and exist polls, so i got confirmation that my hunch was correct.
Nothing new there. Emigres often vote right wing in elections in their country of origin.
Emigres? I need to update my chart.
I was trying to think of the right term for people who are wealthy enough to leave their country because they don’t like the political changes. Is this the wrong word? It comes from the French word for the aristos who left France during the revolution so I don’t think your pic is right.

You're fine. I was just playing off the "white immigrants to majority nonwhite countries are called expats" joke.
