“(With) today’s Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity, that fundamentally changed. For all practical purposes, there are virtually no limits on what the president can do. It’s a fundamentally new principle and it’s a dangerous precedent because the power of the office will no longer be constrained by the law even including the supreme court of the United States.”

Throughout his address, Biden underscored the gravity of the moment, emphasizing that the only barrier to the president’s authority now lies in the personal restraint of the officeholder. He warned vehemently against the prospect of Trump returning to power, painting a stark picture of the dangers such an outcome could pose.

    “Pussy” is pretty narrowly used in place of “vagina” and is used almost exclusively as an insult to call someone weak or cowardly (outside of a sexual context).

      And what’s the problem? If it were sexist they would be using “stop being a woman” compared to “stop being a pussy”. One is sexist the other is just an insult. Grow some skin. This is the internet, after all.

        is just an insult

        You are so close. What makes being a pussy a bad thing? Why is that an insult? Unpack that for a second. Use your critical thinking skills.

          Lol and what makes having a low temperature desirable, because those people are cool. You really are digging for something to be offended by.

              You could, but you’d be wrong. You take a word with a literal meaning and use it as slang, giving it another making. Do I really need to point out how slang works?

                We both know you aren’t so narrow minded as to actually believe the argument you’re making. You’ve ditched common sense/basic social literacy in an effort to win an Internet argument. If you’re not going to actually have a real discussion then we can move on.

                  Lol this was never a real discussion, it was someone clutching their pearls and normal people laughing at them.

                    I’m not sure why you’re wasting your time with a pearl-clutcher then. Surely you don’t need my validation to keep acting like an asshole, so why are you still here? It’s not like my approval means anything. Just block me and be done with it 🤷‍♂️ So congrats! You’ve won the war for moral high ground and your right to call someone a pussy. Truly valiantly fought, you are the winner. I’m sure it feels amazing.

                    [cue some dross about how this is just funny/entertaining to you without any consideration for how sad that is]

                    I’m just gonna save us a lot of time and move on. Feel free to have the last word, I’m sure it’s very important to you.

            Jfc how bored do you need to be to have like four different conversations going with me. Feel free to have the last word, I’m sure it’s very important to you. I’m done

              Lol, look at how many convos you have, how bored must you be? Somehow I’m worse because I’m talking with one person, not 10? But ya, silly me engaging in conversation on a forum.

              Lol, this “have the last word” line is basically a meme at this point. I’ve called out your issues and hypocrisy in other to threads you don’t respond to, but you respond to this with a weak attempt to save face. You had a bad take, got called out, and now you’re running away, tail between your legs.

              You’ve been done, when half a dozen people wrecked your bad stance, at least you recognize it now.
