Trump sends innocent man to El Salvador for having autism awareness tattoo
-
The US has a greater obsession with tattoos than Japan by this point. If you go to a place in Japan and show off a tattoo, the owner might ask you to leave. The US they'll gulag your ass.
Only of you're brown, white people with tattoos are perfectly acceptable, just look at all the neonazis

And the tramp stamps on their bleach blonde bimbos.

don't need to convict to gum up the works of government while the fascists try to do their genocide
I don't even think we can gum up the works. If we try they will just do things without a law saying they can or can't. It's not like they are facing any consequences.
-
This is the only standard by which the Trump administration operates.

You’re right we should just go down with decorum instead of with a fight, it’s the right thing to do

You'd need four Republican senators to convict. I can't imagine that happening.
You need four Republicans to impeach. A lot more to convict.

The works are sufficiently gummed already. Any path forward seems to involve action only implied in the constitution. Maybe a rereading of the Declaration of Independence is in order as well.

It'd still be something. Bemoaning "oh there's no point because it's hopeless" gives these fuckers more fuel because the opposition is just etting it happen without any complaints.
It'd be like a cop kneeling on your neck and not bothering to scream "help I can't breathe! they're killing me!" because you've just accepted that they're going to suffocate you to death.
It would be something. Would it be the most effective use of their time? Unlikely.
"Something must be done, this is something, therefore this must be done" is a joke, not something to take seriously.

Impeachment comes from the house. But yes it's actually 20 Republican senators to convict since it's two-thirds, not a simple majority (assuming all 45 Democrats and two independents vote to convict).
20 is definitely not happening. Even in the last two trials, they only got one vote in one trial.

Just being a white male isn't enough any more.

Feel free to offer your own brilliant alternatives that would be a more effective use of their time. You must have at least one since you're so confident that this isn't it.

I know we're largely focused on stopping Trump, and we need to.
But how do we save these guys?

If I did, they would likely be removed by a mod or admin.

Just look at our current secretary of defense.

Every single person sent to El Salvador were innocent. Not a single one of them had their due process! This is all bullshit. ICE must be destroyed
You're asking Hitler to get rid of the Gestapo.

You’re right we should just go down with decorum instead of with a fight, it’s the right thing to do
It's just that fighting lawfully is not enough. There are other ways to fight this, but filing for impeachment won't do it.

I don't know how you got that from my comment, but whatever. Morons gonna moron.

Seems like most cops have tattoos now.

So were the 50+ votes to repeal the ACA when the Republicans had a minority control but they still did it to send a message.
Further demonstrating how vacuous and generally shitty they are. Even the backward degenerate voters want the fucking ACA.
Impeachment has been of no consequence for half a fucking century.
Maybe we ought to start doing shit that hasn’t been proven ineffective.

What Nazi Germany classed as "untermenschen:"
- People of Jewish descent
- People of Slavic descent
- People of African descent
- People of Romani descent
- Homosexuals
- The mentally disabled
- The physically disabled
- Political dissidents
- POWs
Qualifying people were dehumanized, arrested and initially deported, but eventually taken to camps and either systematically exterminated or put into slavery.
It's not enough to say that there are parallels, America is playing exactly by the Nazi guide book.
