The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

He can try to do all that. How, practically, would that allow him to remain President?

As you may recall, 1poorlady is a Filipina. She lived through Marcos. She has been saying that the Felon is likely to follow the same playbook, and I'm not sure there's anything that can stop him. It being illegal hasn't stopped him so far. He fired/replaced a lot of key people, including in the military. She thinks we going to have another Marcos situation, and I can't figure out what would stop that. Thirty percent of the country would follow him into hell, and some of those folks are Felon appointees.
