At least SCOTUS has been consistent in deciding what is constitutional: it's whatever Federalist Society and Heritage Foundation want it to be at the moment.

I was wondering how long into the Trump presidency until states start considering seceding the union.

I did not have early April on my bingo card.

This is also part of project 2025's plan create such divisive situations and disrupt the government so much that it ceases to function so badly that people protest and rebel in larger and larger numbers - thereby allowing the evil fascist ghouls who control Trump to get him to declare martial law, of which he will never let go until they finish reshaping our government into something unrecognizable.

Right. In which case the two options are:

1) Sit back and let them reshape America into what they want.

2) Fight back and let them reshape American into what they want.

One of those has a chance at stopping the system through disruption and forcing courts to individually battle for each bill and change.

The other is just sitting around and waiting for everything to get worse.
