Twitter should delete his account.
Reddit should delete his subreddit and sticky a donate to ACLU as their top post.

Oh, he'll find a way.

Speaking of the Trump subreddit, i wonder if they're utterly enraged now...

Good time for me to buy Nuclear Throne then.

They are focusing on the lobbying 5 year ban and how Germany increased their spending to NATO

Glad there's still sane people in our government.

 

[Ogodei]

I get butterflies in my stomach from excitement just thinking about this scenario.


The meltdown to end all meltdowns.

The thing would be for decent people to organize a boycott of twitter until they declare a policy to ban accounts at the first sign of harassment or racially-motivated hate-speech, retroactive to all accounts that have done so in the past. Civilized society has the power to effect change through mass action, so it should be taken to the platforms that the Fascists have used to assume power and tell those platforms that they must choose: become another Stormfront, or be a place where civil discourse can be held.

Seems about right. Trump will rip "corrupt courts" on Twitter tomorrow followed by Spicer ranting at a press briefing.

DONE. Nuclear Throne Bought

Be sure to tell them on Twitter

You bet your ass that's what they are going to do.

Let's see how well attacking the people's of america last arm of the law works

Dusting off that old Republican "Activist Judges" talking point in 3 .. 2 ...

 

[Glass Shark]

Proof that donations to ACLU help and that we can fight this stupid shithead. Keep going, the fight is far from over.

 

[Jarmel]

Yep that's definitely coming. I wonder if Trump loses a SC case whether he might actually try to stack the SC.

That's going to be the true breaking point.

 

[GK86]

Yup. No surprises there when he does.

Ah yes. Activist judges.

Takes me back

 

[Woorloog]

Activist judges?

 

[D4Danger]

if you want a glimpse of your future

 

[mr_nexus]

I'm Canadian but I donated $35 to the ACLU. It doesn't matter what country you're from, we all need to stand up against tyranny.

 

[echoshifting]

Activist judges?

It means a judge who does not make a reasonable interpretation of the law because of politics, basically

But what it really means is "judge who made a decision we don't agree with"

"Injustice anywhere is a thread to justice everywhere."

 

[Jorok Goldblade]

Activist judges?

It's a talking point Republicans bust out when the courts rule against them. For example, striking down same-sex marriage bans at state levels triggered the use of this talking point a lot.

 

[Cagey]

It's not going to work.

The judiciary is so expansive, so entrenched in American politics, that taking them on is akin to fighting a land war in Afghanistan or assaulting Russia with winter coming.

We should welcome the incoming waste of time and political capital.

 

[International Iron Man]

Resist and fight, people. Never stop until that citrus colored fascist is out of that chair.

This is the first of many victories, we shall not surrender or fall. Our voices were heard, our protests were seen, and they acted upon it. Never let anyone tell you that protesting doesn't work, for today we seen it did work.

Protesting didn't work. The lawyers who actually did the work, worked.

You would have an argument that protesting worked if Trump reversed the EO due to the protesting. Judges aren't supposed to care about protests, they care about reading and interpreting the law.

 

[HabeeNo]

Great for us, this is history on the making

 

[Ran rp]

He'd make Spicer go into the press room at 3 in the morning and read 8 would-be-tweets out loud.

[Catdaddy]

He'll fire all the judges

Spoiler

he can't but probably dumb enough to think he's still on the apprentice

 

[Red]

This is the Nazgul on Weathertop. The problem is still out there and the odds are still stacked against us. Keep fighting.

I wanna brohug you right now. Thank you!

 

[Alcoremortis]

Every time ACLU does something like this, I'll give them another $100 to help with the next time. I hope I go broke by the end of four years.

Obama's been appointing federal judges that cannot be fired for the past 8 years. I hope he's enjoying the shit out of this.

 

[Machina]

YES. Suck a massive bag of dicks you buffoon.

 

[Jarmel]

The Trump tweets resulting from this are going to be great.

 

[Hydrogen Bluebird]

Can twitter actually suspend the Trump twitter account? His tweets are almost hate speech sometimes.

Would be amazing if all Donald had was the POTUS account.

 

[RoKKeR]

Just got out of a movie - holy shit!!

Fuck yes. Resist.

Hell yes ACLU.

It's their fucking website, I don't know why they couldn't.

I wish they would. Banning his twitter account would legitimately slow the spread of hate. Of course he would still have Facebook and other platforms to jump to, but it would be a blow against his ability to spread hate.

Trump already went after a judge for being Mexican (they were actually an American of Mexican descent) and said they were a "hater" who shouldn't be judging his lawsuit on Trump University. He's going to declare a war on the "corrupt and biased court of haters" for being unfit to judge him and his brilliant ban(non's a racist sack of shit).

Either that or settle.

This...isn't really something you can settle

Think of how many lawsuits are going to pop out of this just going off of today

Basically this. The ACLU blew off the lid. And the lid flew through the oval offices window into trumps face.

 

[Magus1234]

Why is the right wing cowering from this( I know why)? I always knew they were racist at some level but not traitors to the mantra of the United States.

Protesting helped. It brought awareness and much needed funding to the lawyers and the ACLU who did the work.

Wrong.

They would have known this was going to be shut down and it is just onto the next phase of the plan. It doesn't matter to them now, they "acted" and the "liberal court system" stopped them. Any terrorist attack from now on will be blamed directly on the courts.

Queue more demands for change from idiot America. We need a conservative supreme court where Trump can remove members who do not perform!!!

Etc etc

This is very short sighted.
