Normalizing the lack of consequences will be horrible to manage in the future. Any administration that wants to do any enforcement will have to deal with years of precedent of inaction.

'You want to punish me? Where was your 'righteous indignity' and your 'laws' when trump was in charge?'

That's why I say we have to either split the union and all be separate (free to join into smaller groups), or we just rewrite the constitution and remake the government from the ground up.

We have to do the latter regardless because we've proven the current ones are fundamentally broken and all it took was to act in bad faith. Literally all of this because there's intentionally no system in place to account for bad faith or no confidence.

That is actually the exact purpose of the second amendment. So that we the people can replace a government that no longer works for the people of the country.
