Trump continues to MAGA

My To-Do List, By Donald J Trump, aged 79 and a half

Write something deranged in my online diary
Make a call to my good friend Vladimir
Belittle someone less powerful than me
Try to make Epstein disappear.

Have a minion drive me to my golf course
Bawl out a reporter, call her ‘dear’
Get a TV star to be secretary of war
Try to make Epstein disappear.

Stage a fake assassination attempt
Walk out the next day with an unmarked ear
Pay my wife to hold my hand in public
Try to make Epstein disappear.

Threaten Greenland with invasion
Compliment an intern on her ‘perfect rear’
Tell her a lot of people say I’m a great guy
Try to make Epstein disappear.

Fall asleep at a meeting and begin to snore
Wake up - hey I’m President! Demand they cheer
Sack a few generals for refusing mad orders
Try to make Epstein disappear.

Look into the mirror and say ‘hey handsome!’
Insult the French or that guy Sir Kier
Bomb more foreigners into oblivion
Try to make Epstein disappear.

Take my third dementia test of the week
Touch up a young woman, get off on her fear
When none of that works, threaten Armageddon
To try to make Epstein disappear.

To be fair, that’s basically been the position of every US president when it came to “international law” since Harding won the 1920 election with his "covenant of conscience" argument against US membership of the League of Nations. If it ain’t US law, it doesn’t bind the US.

There are two issues with Trump. The less concerning one, that he uses profoundly undiplomatic language to express this. And the more concerning one, that he doesn’t appear to think US law applies to him either.

If the President does it it's not illegal, as Tricky Dicky said.

And SCOTUS in Nixon v. Fitzgerald eventually agreed with him of course. The principle didn’t save his presidency. That was because we had a less partisan Congress in those days that was prepared to act against excesses. I shouldn’t have specified Trump. All US citizens are immune from international law as far as US presidents are concerned. No president has ever considered signing up for the ICC. Congress has basically committed the US to go to war if the ICC should even try.
 
JD Vance, “what do Iran have to do with Lebanon” wtf, they are at least on the same continent and region, what does the US have to do with Israel.

"I much prefer the Popes who launched proper Crusades in the Middle East, none of this rubbish about peace and love like this new guy Leo, terrible ratings for his audiences, they're all saying it. Pope Innocent III, what a guy, I'm innocent too, terrible what the courts did, so unjust and corrupt, he just went and launched his Crusade and told Europe what to do, great guy..."
