Yes nothing is off the table for this admin and Jeanine Pirro in her statement laid the rhetorical groundwork for this but I'd counter that it's good when popular resistance like grand juries refusing to indict Sandwich Guy forces Trump cronies to break the law to get their preferred outcomes.

Like here's a good example: Do we think it'd be *good* for Trump if shooting that boat with a missile ends up getting Americans killed? I'd argue it's bad to have blood on your hands because you did the dumbest thing anyone's ever seen bsky.app/profile/chad...

Lots of bad stuff is going to happen. I wish this wasn't the case! But I don't think it's good or realistic to assume all those things will be beneficial to the authoritarian making them happen.

I mean they are hesitating: They have not done this yet or attempted to do it. And it would require them to take a risk in order to achieve it!

They need to take that refreshing plunge.
