> how to get past the system.

What the fuck are you guys even talking about? Have you not following the news of the past (not even years, months and weeks)?

He's been routinely breaking the rules.

- Two impeachments landed nowhere.

- Mueller report - at least 10 episodes of obstruction of justice, DOJ gave him not even a slap on the wrist.

- Border wall national emergency declaration.

- Executive actions and shuttering agencies. USAID, the Department of Education, CFPB, USAGM/Voice of America. Several courts ruled these actions unlawful, and what? Where's USAID today?

- Challenging election results. He openly pressured Pence to reject certified electors.

- Illegally kidnapping sitting president.

- Illegal war.

- Illegal deportations.

- National Guard deployment in Los Angeles.

- cutting Harvard's funding.

- January 6 pardons and other pardons of allies.

- Firing sitting FBI director.

This isn't even a comprehensive list. Imagining just about any other president doing any of that, walking free and keeping the power seemed inconceivable before. Check and balances clearly not fucking working! Not with this motherfucker.
