For those that can’t see it now, it was a skeet that said:

Republican Rep. Andy Ogles has drafted a constitutional amendment aimed at allowing Donald Trump to be president for a third term. What do you say to him?

Along with a screenshot of the first page of the amendment.

Since the post is gone now, can you remember whether this just aimed to repeal the 22nd amendment, or did it also contain something else? Like paving the way towards, say president for life or dynastic rule?

So we now have a white, Christian supremacist with a hard on for using the US military against those of us who are against that kind of thing as Secretary of Defense…

This is a fucking nightmare.

I get the point he’s making, I guess, but whether the margin was close or not the guy still got confirmed and we’re all going to have to live with the consequences of that. Pointing out how embarrassing it was for the Republicans that it was such a close vote is pretty cold comfort.

Sure. But we take what comfort we can get. The small, cold comfort we take now sustains us for the fight ahead.
