Executive orders are the easiest things to reverse. What's the problem with waiting? Are the Democrats so intolerant of democracy? The other guy won. Majority of the country voted for him. You'll have to wait until he screws up, then the country will vote him out. Until then, deal with the fact that this is what your fellow citizens wanted.

Well, part of the problem with waiting is that Trump is already starting to disappear people to places like El Salvador with no claims or evidence, violating direct court orders in the process. Democracy isn't meant to be a process where you become a god-king. If you believe we're supposed to be a country of laws then you should clearly be aghast at this.

  The voters are far more aghast at the price of their grocery bill and their fear of layoffs than anything you've said. Democrats need to stop peddling outrage and start talking about how they are going to fix things voters actually care about.

    Democrats should just sit back and observe. Let the Republicans hang themselves.

> wait until he screws up, then the country will vote him out He already screwed up. When do I get to vote him out? My civics classes must have neglected to teach me the way to vote out a president mid-term, not to mention the Constitution requires him to leave the office at the end of this term regardless of votes. Probably the closest thing we can do to voting him out would be calling your Congresspeople and telling them to impeach.

vote him out? he's not supposed to be able to run again in 2028. there are term limits.

  He wasn’t supposed to be able to run in 2024 either, thanks to the 14th Amendment. And the Supreme Court decided it didn’t matter. Why do you think the 22nd will have more impact?

    The Supreme Court has ignored the constitutions’s age limits. Why think that they will enforce term limits?

      What age limits did they ignore? There are no upper limits set, and I’m not aware of them ignoring any lower age bounds.

The escalating irremediable harms (as discussed above) of the unconstitutional acts, among other things.

280 million Americans didn’t vote for him though. He’s not even acting like he cares about the 60 million that did.

> Executive orders are the easiest things to reverse. What's the problem with waiting? Are the Democrats so intolerant of democracy? So when Republicans challenged Obama's or Bidens executive orders, say student loans forgiveness for example, were they also intolerant of democracy? Or is it only anti-democratic when one opposes Trump?
