Weston Super Saint Posted 11 December, 2020 Posted 11 December, 2020 2 minutes ago, View From The Top said: It's to do with the traditional pause that takes place between presidencies, a tradition going back 150 years. Trump has decided to ignore this and push ahead with federal executions. He's just pushing on to get the record for the most number of executions by a President. Presumably he wants the record as he feels people might forget about him otherwise. I'd also caveat my lighthearted glibness by the fact that the US Supreme Court has to sanction any executions so it's not just Trump being 'spiteful'...

If Trump was doing it 'out of spite' wouldn't it have made more sense for him to do so at the beginning of his Presidency? It's not like the guy wasn't already in prison on 'death row' at that time! So why not push for it then rather than wait until he is on his way out and, when traditionally, Presidents leave these matters for the incoming President?

Mystic Force Posted 15 December, 2020 Posted 15 December, 2020 I think its important to understand there is a difference between not liking an outcome, but accepting it and believing it to be illegetite and trying to stop it by force. And there is a difference between trying to overturn a vote that has been held and working for a different result next time by persuading people to vote differently. If an effective authoritarian comes along, the game is over for the US being a liberal democracy, it has been shown that the system could be easily kicked in.

If an effective authoritarian comes along, the game is over for the US being a liberal democracy, it has been shown that the system could be easily kicked in. Part of me is reassured by the robustness of the US safeguards. Nearly all of the public officials and judges did their duty regardless of their own personal politics. But you cant ignore the fact that over half of the Republican senators and representatives backed the Texas case - basically one state attacking three others in a brazen attempt to get a national Presidential election overturned. Phoney nationalism has done huge damage to social cohesion of both the US and UK and to the respect other countries accord to us.
