Not 35 years of age or older enough

The law clearly doesn't matter anymore.

It does for the right/"wrong" people.

Only as long as those people keep pretending.

In reality everyone knows we can just do whatever.

So executing the rich and forcefully redistributing their wealth is a valid public policy now

I mean, we've been trying to do other things, but they won't play nice. I guess we need to exterminate a few, then offer the rest the opt-in to pay higher taxes as an alternative.

The landlords that were holding the Chinese economy hostage were given a chance to relinquish their properties, then they executed the ones who wouldn't.

It's only fair we give them an opportunity to surrender.

We've given them plenty of opportunity. We tried to pass something closer to universal health care, and they shot it down. We tried to raise the minimum wage, they shot it down. Tried to relive student loans, tried to make housing more affordable, nothing.

They have had their warnings.

More like repeat the same action that happened to the CEO of United Healthcare.

And if he were to run for a house seat, and we get 2/3 of congress to vote for a package to do this, we could make him president by impeaching and removing POTUS, VP, and have him be speaker of the house and succeed into the presidency for a special term.

Wishful thinking but it would technically be constitutional. I've tossed this idea and many others in my head about how to get massive support across the country to accomplish something crazy bold like this but I could go on and on and there's lots of what ifs

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Per the 1947 succession act if the speaker (or anyone else in the line of succession) fails to qualify, and age is a qualifier, it goes to next in line which would be the Secretary level cabinet positions.

I'd be very worried about Luigis politics outside of Healthcare. The jump to murder also does question whether he'd be able to make the compromises necessary to pass legislation. He grew up fairly rich iirc and I would like a president with a bit more life experience.
