I know a former CEO of a defense contractor who is similar to Trump in many respects. He has the sort of behavior similar to Donnie that is like “I’m super successful idk who the hell you are you shouldn’t be telling me what to do”

2018-11-27 18:10:35 UTC  

The problem is that he staffed his administration (other than Miller) with people who support immigration. His instincts are good, but they always talk him down from taking real action

2018-11-27 18:10:51 UTC  

Are we allowed to tell people outside IE about the cards, or is this our secret money maker?

2018-11-27 18:10:52 UTC  

I've heard the theory that he's not issuing EOs till he gets one more SCOTUS pick, because the 9th circuit would just instantly challenge him and SCOTUS isn't a guaranteed win for him just yet.

2018-11-27 18:10:55 UTC  

I wish he could tell us things like that. I hate not knowing @Nemets

2018-11-27 18:12:00 UTC  

The 9th will challenge him anyway. Any exec action will get reviewed. That’s why it needs to be done as soon as possible

2018-11-27 18:12:38 UTC  

Trump needs to bring in Kobach and get rid of Kelly, Nielson, and Mattis. I'm 100% certain Kelly is convincing him to back down on every budget veto threat "to keep the military funded"

2018-11-27 18:12:50 UTC  

@VinceChaos right, but if SCOTUS isn't going to support him it's dumb to do it now. It's a guaranteed losing move.

2018-11-27 18:13:14 UTC  

afaik the 9th can't do shit about him actually enforcing what he EO's as long as the people executing the EO are on his side. hence the importance of wholesale razing his staff and starting from scratch

2018-11-27 18:13:30 UTC  

Once he knows he'll win in the highest court, it's time to let the 9th circuit come at him.

2018-11-27 18:13:38 UTC  

simply label all the EO's under the auspices of "national security," and the Patriot Act covers most anything

2018-11-27 18:13:42 UTC  

We have 5 to 4 I believe I don’t think it’s a losing move but he may not feel confident yeah @missliterallywho

2018-11-27 18:14:42 UTC  

@VinceChaos We don't necessarily have all 5. Roberts and Gorsuch are too moderate to trust.

2018-11-27 18:15:17 UTC  

The election of the nationalist candidate came before the infrastructure was in place. What a topsy turvy world

2018-11-27 18:15:28 UTC  

If Trump doesn't act now on immigration, he loses in 2020. If he's waiting for RBG to die before passing EOs, that's a losing bet. Even if she died tomorrow, you couldn't get a new justice on the court in time for the 2019 session

Feelsbad that even martial law probably wouldn't work cos the top of the military isn't nationalist enough to tolerate it

2018-11-27 18:18:27 UTC  

To be fair, if Trump does fire all of his staff and starts from scratch, where would he find new staffers? He'd have to replace them with people who would want to work for a guy who would just fire everybody. They wouldn't be the best and the brightest.

Furthermore Trump would lose most of his support in Congress, which would put him in an even more vicarious position.

2018-11-27 18:19:11 UTC  

Mass cyberstrike to suggest people to hire?

2018-11-27 18:19:26 UTC  

Staffers are routinely replaced. Mass firing is unnecessary.

His support in Congress hasn't actually passed anything they didn't support before Trump. It would be different if they had cut immigration as well as taxes

It's standard practice to change up the cabinet after an election.

2018-11-27 18:21:52 UTC  

don't be either of these

2018-11-27 18:22:21 UTC  

@TMatthews That's exactly why our losing seats in the midterms didn't change anything. We swapped retiring Republican cucks for Democrats. Same thing, different name.

@missliterallywho Maybe but he only has two years left on his term, he'd have to be firing and replacing a new staff member every week, which would still make the white house look very unstable and unnappealing for potential staff candidates.
