That is how a child would behave. You can't quit and ignore the person in charge.
When have you ever heard the advice, "you get what you want by refusing to engage the only people who can do something about it?"
- SomeStupidPoint 10y agoThe person in charge is only in charge because we agree to it. Not agreeing -- and refusing to give them your influence -- is the only way bad leaders are ever removed.
- concinds 10y agoThat's preposterous, he's in charge for the next 4 years and nothing (even impeachment) will change that, since he'll just get replaced and his agenda continued. This "legitimacy" and "normalization" talk is just as post-factual as anything Trump ever said. Is Bernie a fascist for saying he would work with the Trump admin on the good parts of his agenda?
- grzm 10y agoIf Trump were replaced by Pence, I think there would be a noticeable difference. The agenda, though perhaps similar, wouldn't be identical, and their personas are significantly different. Just as an exercise, if Pence were president and Trump were VP, do you think we would be hearing as little from Trump as we're currently from Pence? And before you say, well, Pence is the VP, you're right, but I can't imagine Trump taking second seat to anybody, while Pence has.
- mcv 10y agoNo, if he gets replaced, Trump's agenda won't continue. It'll be Mike Pence's agenda that will replace his.
- croon 10y agoOr it's a child in charge, and it's time the parents assert control.
