We got him boys. Pack it up. For the first time in a life of unchecked blatant corruption he will experience consequences. Yup. This is the one that does it. All that other treason was foreplay. Yessir; good day's work. We can all finally heal.
Burger republic.
"A banana republic is a country with an economy of state capitalism, where the country is operated as a private commercial enterprise for the exclusive profit of the ruling class. Typically, a banana republic has a society of extremely stratified social classes, usually a large impoverished working class and a ruling class plutocracy, composed of the business, political, and military elites."
SURELY THERE IS A CONGRESSIONAL REVIEW PROCESS FOR THE EXPORT OF ARMS. SURELY A CHECK OR BALANCS EXISTS. REFUSING THE SALE OF F35S TO CHINA THROUGH SAUDI WILL HAVE BIPARTICIAN SUPPORT.
The AECA contains procedures for congressional joint resolutions of disapproval concerning notified FMS and DCS transactions. Section 36(b)(1) of the AECA prohibits the U.S. government from issuing an LOA if Congress "enacts a joint resolution prohibiting the proposed sale."
GOOD GOOD WAIT
Congress has never successfully blocked a proposed arms sale via a joint resolution of disapproval.
WAIT
The President has the authority to waive the AECA statutory review periods

Super solid post. References cited from the government itself. Depressing that it’s on this topic though. Damn.
Everything Trump has done from day one has been treason. For some reason the self appointed patriots don't mind.
America is in its Zuma era.
South Africa arms deal that landed Zuma in court
Spoiler warning: the country has still not recovered.
Blatant is the key word. They are so high on their own narrative that they don't even try to hide their corruption anymore. After their downfall, we'll have plenty of material to indict & ultimately lock them away with.
I could be wrong and I admit that I don't have as a firm grasp of US politics as I'd like, but I really cannot see a situation where anyone is going to be able to control Trump to the point that which they might be able to get him from front of a jury. I can't see that happening without some level of conflict. He's already talking about a third term, the only way that doesn't happen is a rebellion, or him having a heart attack or something.
It’s still a huge jump to actually succeed in a third term. Maybe I’m naive but even in the face of blatant flouting the law, I can’t see that happening
But at least as importantly, Trump is nearing the end of his life. Supreme Court has already covered him with blanket immunity: treason is fine as long as it’s official business, corruption is fine, violating the constitution is fine, personal enrichment by exploiting the government is fine. He’s probably out of the reach of justice, except for the voice of history.
But all the minions holding themselves above the law to do evil are only protected because of Trump. They can’t buy a pardon from an ethical president, and even Republicans can be ethical. Their time for running amuck is coming to the end. There’s still every chance they will face justice for their crimes.
And even where they’re not actual crimes, I’m sure Republicans will rediscover their “ethics” when it’s a Democrat President who could act similarly. They will actually help restore order, for fear of leopards eating their faces
The current regime will collapse, one way or another, sooner or later. Then we'll get them all in front of judge and/or jury and it'll all be slam dunk thanks to the material they themselves provided.
Of course I'm hoping this all happens before any of them dies of old age.
Their goal is to make sure that when they go down there is no one left to hold them accountable. They're making sure everyone else goes down before them. This regime will never be held accountable, Trump should be in jail right now and the government and the courts all decided that would be unfair to the poor orange billionaire who never emotionally matured beyond a whiny spoiled child who is bitter that the other kids don't like him and is determined to make them pay instead of learning how to get along and share his toys.
I don't have your faith.
Nothing in the last decade has given any indication that the US has the ability or inclination to deal with this.
Cowardly delayed until he got re-elected, but the USA came this close 🤏 to jailing Trump, and even so, he is a felon now. That's not nothing.
But please don't call my glass-not-completely-empty attitude "faith"
But didn't we all say the same things the first time around? Dead to say, but nothing stuck then, and nothing will stick now.
How's that independence working out
this is treason
Add it to the pile...
Yeah, the meme assumes the US is a country of laws for those in power. Common mistake.
Good thing is, they're doing it all out in the open. Everything is documented. They might have impunity on their side now, but not forever.
Yep. Now we're totally going to pursue this, aren't we. Right?
Of course you guys are.
They'll get right on it after they've done the insurrection treason stuff...and then the traitory stolen top secret documents stuff that were kept in an unlocked ticket next to a fax machine!
Ha, just kidding. It'll all wait until he dies, and then maaaaybeee someone will look into it. And mayyybee a few of the lower echelon of his cronies miiiight get a slap on the wrist about it. Possibly a few fines.
By that time he'll have sold off even more high tech secrets for more buildings in places where hardly anyone will visit.
Not the first time he acted traitorously and it certainly won't be the last.
I think Saudi Arabia being, y'know, Saudi Arabia is bad enough without throwing in that "Chinese ally" thing lol.
Saudi Arabia isn't going to reverse engineer an F35. China will reverse engineer an F35.
Kind of ironic too because as evil as they are, SA are absolutely an American ally as well.

Could the OP not think of any reason this would be a bad thing other than China? Not the slave labor? Not the support for autocracies? Not the crimes against humanity? Fucking yanks man.
That said, I have no particular opinion on the China thing, let Trump destroy Western military supremacy; I'll happily watch.
Needed to appeal to American supremacists by mentioning China at least once. It can't be truly evil unless CHINA!!!

Can't the Pentagon just NOT do it? Just fucking defy him, or sell them shit fake ones
Most of the career Defence personnel in the Pentagon with spines have already been forced out through purges.
The remaining staff are loyal to Trump, or likely have made clear they'll not risk their jobs raising any concerns or objections.
I don't think most of the US realises how fucked they are under Trump 2. This is barely 10 months in of a four year term.

Indeed... they are still thinking the military will save them because they marched poorly on the parade the Pedo President wanted... oh no, they said, they can march clockwork but did it poorly to show they are not loyal to trump... as the saying goes "the one requisite for people to believe a lie, is that they WANT to believe it"
He'll fire everyone and SCOTUS will let him do it
Okay, so let's get fired! Time to standup to this fuck. Or is it better to commit treason in the name of the baby billionaire? What would happen if he fired all the top brass? He would probably lose control of the army.
I didn't say "comply", just what the consequences would be.
These people need to be Nuremberged
What would happen? hes already basically doing it. The answer is stooges are put in their place.
There aren't easy solutions, and the solutions most people throw up are like "What if the people I think don't care suddenly started caring".
fr, "but the bad guy told me to do it!" is really getting old

Taking a bribe to let China reverse engineer our next generation fighter jet should be the kind of thing that has consequences. That’s going to cost a lot of lives down the road if things go sideways.
