A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

The best part will be if he wins, those in power will just sit around with their thumbs up their butts waiting for fascism to take over on Jan. 20th.
EDIT: It's thumbs up their butts time for 2 and a half months.
Can't the president do anything he wants right now???? ๐ง
No, only what the SCOTUS allows him to. Democrats aren't allowed to do anything.
Well, he probably could initiate anything he wanted on the grounds that they said that any official act is immune. He could probably get away with quite a bit before they managed to get together and stop him saying it wasn't an official act.
Yes, and they get to decide what an "official" act is. But it's moot. Biden doesn't have the stones to do what it takes to save the US from fascism. Not even close.
If only he wasn't a fucking coward
