    Cool, do something about it. SCOTUS gave the president an unlimited get out of jail free card and you’re just letting shit play out.

      He’s the President. He can only address this with a temporary measure known as an Executive Order. Besides having an expiration date, Trump could repeal it as soon as he’d like.

      Congress would need to draft and vote for legislation to effectively regulate the private sector, but we just gave Republicans full control.

        And I get that. I know it’s not as easy as just doing whatever you want. But at the same time I can totally see the next guy that’s up doing exactly that.

          Oh for sure. He’ll be able to with this Republican controlled Congress and SCOTUS. We got four years of an unchecked and unbalanced government backing a narcissistic megalomaniac.
