It’s a serious question because the president is elected so it’s not just “hey you need to step down”.

  • Definitely Musk shouldn’t be a part of things.
  • Definitely the courts should be listened to (but what that means as a demand I don’t really understand)
  • Definitely reign in the presidential orders, reduce their scope or number or SOMETHING

I mean, I’m not the guy to do this. But what exactly kind of things could be done to control this crazy ass situation?

EDIT: I’m taking about how we can restore and reform the United States, not visions for a new entity.

    Well as I said in another post, all of the government needs to be investigated for financial corruption. R’s and D’s. We are literally no better having Trump than anyone in the R’s because the party as an apparatus as well as a cultural institution has sold out to both capital and fascist foreign powers. But that doesn’t mean we need a Dem, unless it’s a non establishment Dem.

    Ideally the new President would be a worker president coming from the general strike.

      yeah, i agree with you but im also living in reality… you know, whats actually possible.

      the reality is even with a general strike theres no way to just insert a new president without following process.

        The reality is a general strike is unlikely to happen.

        But if it does happen it happens with some organization.

        Someone will gain popularity.

        They can win an election with such an organized base.

        They can then do what Trump is doing but x10 in the other direction.

        But there’s always the better option that the general strike leads to some kind of mass conflict and Trump and his cronies get simply removed via coup.

          They can win an election

          exactly correct, and until that election vance or someone down the designated line would be in charge after a trump removal. policy and procedure suck, but its all we have.

            We don’t have it. We don’t have anything.

            Why do a general strike if not to overthrow the normal non-working system and do something we can’t otherwise do. Like force an impeachment and an immediate election.
