      This. Except his timing is off - he’s starting something with the smallest local government he knows he could beat, Venezuela. He’s sending the US Navy to “sink drug traffickers” - without proof of said crime - and warning that reprisals or protection of said ships will be an act of war. And of course, wartime presidents can have a third term. Except Congress declares war, not the president. And we have to let each and every one of those MFers know we’re watching them. Any state that wants to follow California and redraw to increase Democratic seats should do so, to reduce the possibility of war.

        Then again, the tribunal of six will probably just be like “lol sure go ahead” if he does it and it’s challenged in court
