Wild to consider legality with this administration

And you think the ability to break the law extends to you or anyone else outside of the administration? That's wild to think.

You think only one party is allowed to break the law and the rest of us have to follow it to a t?

I’m tired of dems and blue states trying to play by the rules when the GOP is actively ignoring them. Good on CA. Hopefully they inspire more blue donor states to do the same.

Is it a good thing to abandon rules? No. Obviously not. But playing by the rules while actual fascists ignore/rewrite them as needed is fucking useless too.
