Trump consults Bush torture lawyer on how to skirt law and rule by decree

John Yoo wrote memo used to justify waterboarding
Trump keen to use executive orders and circumvent Congress

John Yoo told Axios he has been talking to White House officials about his view that a recent supreme court ruling on immigration would allow Trump to issue executive orders that flout federal law.

In a Fox News Sunday interview, Trump declared he would try to use that interpretation to try to force through decrees on healthcare, immigration and “various other plans” over the coming month.

A REPUBLIC IF YOU CAN KEEP IT; and good luck with that (July 20) —

Sit back. Relax. The sky is NOT falling.

Turns out it was never there.

Like the whatchamacallit, the Constitution?

(Or, for all that, “gods” who “hear” prayers.)

All there has ever been is THE STRONG MAN,

the glorious leader who,

can do whatever, whenever he likes
per tortuous logic spewed by John Yoo.

The valiant CAPTAIN commanding the crew

of lesser beings who’ll do as they’re told,

who’ll follow orders,

their brains all moldy, shot full of holes.

From watching FOX and listening to Limbaugh

their souls have become fascistic scrimshaw.

Take “Congress” and “Courts” to the town dump.

Bow down before the Mighty God Trump.
