In an interview hosted by Politico, the California governor said the US must ‘wake up’ to the the threat posed by the president’s disregard of democratic norms
Donald Trump is gravely serious about running for a third term in violation of the US constitution, California governor Gavin Newsom said on Wednesday, warning Americans to “wake up” to what he described as the president’s flagrant disregard for democratic norms.
“I don’t think Donald Trump wants another election,” Newsom, a Democrat, said during a live interview at a summit hosted by Politico in Sacramento. “This guy doesn’t believe in free, fair elections.”
Newsom, who has gained national attention in recent weeks for his merciless trolling of Trump online and who is widely considered a presidential contender, said he had a stack of two dozen “Trump 2028” hats sent to him by the president’s supporters.
Weekend at Bernie’s? They will put his corpse on a golden throne and run enough currents through his body to pretend to have a pulse, and worship the god emperor regardless
Don’t give them any ideas. That shit is only fun as science fiction.
Well, consider this: Palpatine was unable to sit on the throne when he had all of the electricity and sith magic and shit flowing through him. It was only after he like stole the life force from the girl and the guy who was bad (but had a change of heart and now it’s all good, no big whoop) that he was able to get near, and eventually sit on, the throne.
Seems pretty clear that electrifying the hypothetical non-living president while sitting on a throne is unlikely to work.
But what do I know? I’m just a widely respected marine biologist 🙄
