This logic falls apart if your job depends more on obey orders than to obey the law...

Some civil servant is being called right now, and told that he needs to get his ass off his Thanksgiving couch, and get to work to find that plaque and remove it by the end of the day.

[–] FordBeeblebrox@lemmy.world 17 points 17 hours ago

He doesn’t realize that following those orders means we have a duty to relieve him of command…by force if necessary.

ITS AN OATH TO THE CONSTITUTION NOT DER FUHRER YOU ASSHATS

Posting a vibe instead of understanding what you‘re posting. Like republicans playing Born in the USA because of the refrain and not understanding the lyrics.

By his own words, he should be hanged for sedition.

[–] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Not sure the rope is still a viable option, capital punishment still exists but I assume it would be the electric chair or that euthenizing drug that some places have deemed to inhumane to use on animals.

[–] Lushed_Lungfish@lemmy.ca 1 points 4 hours ago

Razor wire.

Firing squad. I'd wager you would have plenty of volunteer squad members.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 2 points 5 hours ago

👋OOOH! OOOH! PICK ME!👋

[–] frog_brawler@lemmy.world 11 points 19 hours ago

I bet if $1 lottery tickets were being sold to win one of five positions on the firing squad; we’d have enough money to end homelessness in the US.

[–] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 6 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Come now we haven't used firing squads in the U.S. since uhhh... 3 times this year. South Carolina playing it hot I guess

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 3 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

The other new execution method is Nitrogen Asphyxiation. Safe, efficient, inexpensive. No sense wasting a lot of money on PedoCon Traitors.

I thought they voted against that because of religion or something

[–] Triumph@fedia.io 16 points 1 day ago

Any port in a storm.

[–] gnutrino@programming.dev 11 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I'm sure you could make an exception for the president. After all, he specifically requested it.

[–] myfunnyaccountname@lemmy.zip 18 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

The only thing that fat makeup wearing pedophile has read was the McDonald’s menu while getting his diaper changed.

[–] Lennny@lemmy.world 6 points 16 hours ago

Doubtful, remember hamberder? Dude can't read that menu.

No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 3 points 4 hours ago

14th Amendment, Section 3. I was screaming through the entire Biden administration that Trump, and EVERY other MAGA that defended, supported, and encouraged his violent insurrection should have been prohibited from ever holding office for the rest of their lives.

Those that weren't executed for it, that is.

[–] FinalRemix@lemmy.world 43 points 1 day ago (1 children)

If the president could read, he'd be very upset.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 17 points 1 day ago

Those of us that can read are.

[–] kata1yst@sh.itjust.works 82 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I've never seen a sociopath attempt to gaslight a plaque before. It's bold, it's fresh.

[–] nova_ad_vitum@lemmy.ca 3 points 8 hours ago

The theory that he can't it doesn't ever read (like, at all) could also apply here.

[–] Zephorah@discuss.online 16 points 1 day ago

It’s classic Cluster B Personality.

[–] nulluser@lemmy.world 74 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Did he actually post that, or is this a clever hoax?

Edit: OMG https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/115601892410000128

[–] DickFiasco@sh.itjust.works 46 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I think he just read the word "Loyalty" and figured that was good enough.

[–] logicbomb@lemmy.world 21 points 1 day ago

Trump reads at an extremely low level compared to his position, so I think your explanation is probably most consistent with Hanlon's razor.

He can't read.

[–] Lasherz12@lemmy.world 29 points 1 day ago

What a dumbass. Dude just called for the death of congress members saying the exact same thing.

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Reading comprehension has never been his strong point

[–] nulluser@lemmy.world 5 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

You say that like he has a strong point.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 4 points 13 hours ago

He can ruin a casino like nobody else, and I don't like casinos

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 2 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago)

He does being absolute proof beyond a shadow of a doubt that guillotines are necessary to fix society by being morally bankrupt and entitled about everything.

[–] Rentlar@lemmy.ca 34 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Ignore Trump's illegal orders. Got it.

[–] Zombie@feddit.uk 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I think they're going by the Supreme Court's ruling that everything done in an official capacity by the president is legal, therefore any order Trump gives is the law and thus cannot be illegal.

It's stupid, but that's never stopped them before.

Wow, I didn't even think of that. It's really dumb and doesn't hold up to even mild scrutiny but that hasn't stopped them in the past.

[–] muzzle@lemmy.zip 21 points 1 day ago (1 children)

This is going to age like fine milk.

[–] muffedtrims@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

The finest of milk sitting under the hot sun

[–] rockSlayer@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He likely posted this because he genuinely believes that his will is the exact same thing as following the constitution. He's deluded enough to believe that he can do no wrong, so opposing him is tantamount to sedition.

[–] Frozengyro@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

I am the ~~Senate~~ constitution

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

. . . not to believe the evidence of their eyes and ears . . .
