Bonespurs says a lot of things. In a 1967 case Afroyim v. Rusk the US Supreme Court held that no US citizen can involuntarily lose their citizenship. But you're right that the USA I once knew is dead - in that one a spoiled toddler who can't find his own leaky asshole with a funnel would never have been elected President.

Are you really citing precedent as if the law even fucking matters anymore?

I realize I'm being an asshole and I'm sorry. And if any of these ass clowns get held accountable for anything they do I'll happily eat crow.

I just don't see it... We're in for a hard reset sometime soon.

Memes notwithstanding, the Supreme Court hasn't consistently ruled in Trump's favor, even stuffed with 3 of his nominees (thanks to Moscow Mitch). The court did save his ass in their insurrection ruling, but in his second term they've been ruling about 50-50 for and against him so far. Here's an article if you're interested.

50-50 is pretty good odds when a majority of the cases are absolute garbage.
