Executive Orders are not laws and do not rule Here’s what would rule: an affordable small plates bar near Lafayette Park in downtown DC serving a taste of the French countryside called: Executive Hors d'Oeuvres

When the people with badges and guns believe and execute EOs with more force and vigor than actual laws ‘he can’t do that’ isn’t worth jack shit. Thus far the only places he can’t do that applies to are CA (minimally) and IL, countered with a whole bunch of red states saying ‘yes, more please’.

Sure if that was the point I made, but it’s not. It’s not Trump “doesn’t let things matter” it’s no one’s stopping him & that’s not because he’s preventing it, it’s because no one’s trying outside the two I mentioned. Problem is know it alls like you who are the same as the Twitter meme soldiers.

Can you distinguish the difference between a willingness and inability? Thus far people haven’t been willing to stop Trump which is not the same as Trump preventing people from stopping him. That’s not being doomist, things can and will turn on a dime once people with power decide to do so.

These aren't the bangers you think they are. When's the last time he's been to a protest? You? Upping this again. Belarus. Five years ago. Hundreds of thousands in the streets couldn't stop the regime. You're in very deep shit, and don't seem to grasp the task at hand.

Then he should probably stop throwing around phrases like doomers and cowards when referring to other people who are maybe more clear-eyed about the situation.

Stop waiting for a savior. It is incredibly passive & lazy to expect someone else to “stop him”. We are not powerless. We have agency. Many small acts of resistance & subversion are occurring *everywhere*. They add up. Do what is within your power - that is the assignment.

I have zero doubts you think your social media activism is making a real difference.

this “haha you think laws matter anymore” is the mirror image of the Facebook-like blue brigade replies “the cavalry is coming, you’ll see!”. Loser stuff. If you want laws to matter, stop conceding they don’t.

I’m sorry you think snark is helpful. You can feel pessimism or grief or any number of emotions w/o dunking on other folks who are engaged. Not all activism is broadcast on social media. And social media activism - say, legal scholars sharing analysis to a general audience - is actually valuable.
