Next time someone has a Republican in the hot seat for an interview, just for shits and giggles, see what they say when you ask them if they'd be okay with a potential Democratic administration doing any of the following by executive order:
1. Threatening to withhold disaster funds from any states that don't secure abortion rights or pass gun control laws.
2. Taking away federal money from any schools that allow a Turning Point USA chapter on campus.
3. Making it policy that no religious symbols of any kind can be displayed in federal offices and firing anyone who does so.
4. Arresting and deporting any foreign students who support Israel and its genocidal war against Palestine.
5. Allowing George Soros to decide what federal employees should be fired, including those from departments that regulate his investments, and giving him access to the personal and financial records of every person, organization, and business in the United States.
6. Appointing Rachel Maddow as Secretary of Defense, Mehdi Hasan as Secretary of State, and Joy Reid as head of the FBI.
7. Dismantling the Department of Homeland Security. [Okay, actually, this is a good idea.]
8. Firing the leadership of the military for being white men, with Secretary Maddow stating that racism gives white men an unfair benefit.
9. Declaring that any entity receiving government funds must immediately hire trans people, and if they don't, they will not get any government contracts.
10. Immediately cutting all government funding for the oil and gas industry. [Yeah, I wish they'd do this.]
11. Granting amnesty to every undocumented person without a felony criminal record. [Again, this ought to be done.]
12. Allowing for tens of thousands more refugees to come to the United States. [Yep, this, too.]
13. Firing any employee who isn't fully vaccinated against anything they can be vaccinated for.
14. Halting funding of any conservative policy research through grants or other programs immediately on the basis that conservative ideology is automatically racist.
15. Shooting Elon Musk into space with no way for him to come back.
This is a worthless exercise because Democrats would never do any of this, even the good stuff. Sure, some of it is a stupid and destructive way to run a country (although I'd argue that Rachel Maddow would make a far better Defense Secretary than drunk Nazi Pete Hegseth). But it's a thought experiment (and this is the shit I came up with in about ten minutes of thinking. I'm sure I'll add to it as things pop into my head or I get suggestions on the socials, like maybe "Renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of Obama.")
In other words, how the hell would you like it, conservative fucknuts, if the federal government decided to fuck up your world for no reason other than the president could do it and no one would stop him?
