    Well, let’s see.

    It won’t be his moral fiber.

    It won’t be China or Russia the only two military powers that have a chance to have any influence on CONUS affairs.

    Maybe his desperate desire for public approval as I suspect major ordinance dropped on a US population center isn’t going to poll well, but I’d hate to count on that.

    Me? Stop the president from doing literally anything? You vastly over estimate my powers.

        The chances of me personally firebombing anything is functionally 0.

        I certianly expect someone else to handle this for me, the men and women of the US military who aren’t going to a US city into fucking Dresden.

        My suggestion was to rely on the mechanism which has handled this type of issue without fail since day one.

        Yours is to encite random acts of partisan violence.

        I’m going stick with my plan thanks.

          We’re already in the state of partisan violence. just take a look at the news. 🤦 excuse me mr gestapo please dont arrest my friends and family. lol.

          god you people would rather sit on your asses than do anything effective to stop this nonsense. Trump is already denying aid to states he doesnt like, arresting legal residents on trumped up charges. about the only thing he isnt doing is shooting people personally.

          so what will it take for you to actually lift a fucking finger? your family members being shot in the streets by ICE? random acts of directed violence is precisely what is needed atm. but keep on hand wringing. I’m sure that will be effective!

            Not wringing my hands, in fact I never stated whether I was actually against Trump bombing cities, I just answered what was stopping him.

            That was the question, and the answer is still the same.

            As far as my lifting a finger? Well, short of the usual civic duties like voting and such, I’m not getting involved.
