Why isn’t Trump being overthrown?

[itsneverdullinull]

I’m sorry if this is a really thick question but I’m guessing that the answers will be multi-faceted.

Why isn’t Trump being overthrown internally in the US? He is presiding over a shit show and trampling over the constitution from what I understand. But there doesn’t seem to be massive resistance to this (or at least none reported). Can anyone explain why this is, please. Genuine question.

Both democracies both unpopular leaders. A key benefit of democracy is to change government without using guns.

What significant and long term damage would that be? If you were talking about Cameron I might agree with you - the damage his government inflicted on public services will never be reversed.

I’m also wondering why there isn’t a level above Trump which has to agree to his actions. Maybe there is and they agree with everything he is doing.
What I am aware of is that he gets rid of opponents. The head of the military spoke against Trump’s rationale about Ukraine for example and was swiftly replaced.
He surrounds himself with unqualified yes men.
Most of the US don’t care about Iran, that’s not a criticism, all citizens care primarily about themselves and their family and immediate circle.
Yet Trump is ruining the US economy. The price of petrol is rocketing.
Surely he can’t justify this to US citizens.

Or indeed Johnson and even Truss. The damage they did to the economy is having major long-term effects.

No they didnt.
Google is free.

So weird how obsessed everyone is with Trump. You never get these threads about Putin or the Ayatollah (whoever he is now). Both Russian and Iranian regimes are engaged in (actual, stealth or proxy) war against the UK and its allies and have been for decades but I've yet to see an 'how to overthrow Putin' thread.

As for Trump 'starting the war in the Middle East' LOL. I'm old and my earliest memories of watching the news are wars in the middle East and Iran murdering uk citizens in London.

Correct.
stupid comparison.

It's not nearly the same. And I'd argue not nearly as much damage as the previous 14 years.

He’s an extremely controversial leader but he was elected through the U.S. democratic system and is supported by a large number of people who like his decisive ‘get stuff done’ approach to politics.

but what stuff is he getting done ? Genuine question.
He ran.on promises to end Ukraine war on day one no less. Ha ha that went well.
He said he would slash gas and electricity charges. Surprisingly they are massively up. And oil is obviously soaring now.
He promised to make health care affordable and has done the opposite.
He has bankrupted farmers and destroyed tourism and the economy is in the shitter.He has failed to create jobs
And finally he has trashed his promise not to engage in further wars or attack Iran. He wasn't sending your kids to die remember.
He is the president of peace after all.
.He also promised to be transparent about the Epstein files which was another lie.
So I ask again....what has he got done...except set up ICE and terrorise innocent people .

Yes I’d like to know exactly what positive things Trump has done.
I know for a fact that gas prices have risen in the US which affects the cost of living for every citizen.
It’s a genuine question, what positives has he brought?

More people were killed by ice under Obama by the way.

Tarrifs is completely fair for him to do as the u.s president.

Greenland was definitely a step to far.

Mass deportations. This is my ‘fix so many things wrong with my country’ button. And nobody ever thought to push it before Trump. They estimate that 3 million illegals have left since Trump was elected, at this rate perhaps most of the Bidenwave will have been forced to leave

“Illegals” are often “illegal” because some twat has bombed their country or supported some really shit human rights violations. But if that’s your criteria then good for you. Let’s hope you’re never in a position to need help from someone outside your land mass.

If someone bombs your homeland, will you actually go seek refuge in that country? Really?

Tbh you and I both know they go for the money.

In any case, it seems like a dangerous game for both the refugee and the host country (who would face reprisals, recall America had four Muslim terrorist attacks in the last two weeks)

Probably safer not to assume that what you and I know are the same thing.

You are incredibly naive if you think they go
for any other reason other than the higher wages and standards of living

The total number of people who died in ICE custody during the eight years Obama was in office was 63. So far, in the 5 years Trump has been in office, it's 84. And that's not counting the people killed out In the community by ICE officers.

Trump's use of tariffs has been found by the US courts to be not only unfair but illegal.

so.that is the only policy that counts? What happens when the national debt ( already over 100 percent of GDP) becomes unsustainable and everything stalls ?
The economy is already on the slide and if the country keeps racking up trillions in debt how long do you think that can go on ?
Tariffs are destroying farmers , bankrupcies are up and job creation down and Trump is happily destroying American trade alliances . Meanwhile tourism is tanking due to social media monitoring and fears around ICE.
Whether the average MAGA supporters wants to admit it or not no.country can survive alone and alienating the whole world is going to be difficult to reverse once this madness is over. Trump.will be dead and buried soon and everyone left behind will continue to suffer for a v long time to.come. With the exception of the mega rich of course whose wealth has skyrocketed under his leadership.

A President has far greater powers than a Prime Minister. It’s nearly impossible to ‘overthrow’ anyone over there.

besides anyone who wants to overthrow a legit elected leader, seem basically mini dictators

Back to the original question, a further reason why Trump hasn't been "overthrown" is that there is nobody tripping over themselves to take over. Who in their right mind would ever want to have to undo the current shitshow Trump is causing.

We can only hope the situation is brought back under control somehow by the time the US elections happen, otherwise its going to create even more problems for the US and the world to have to clean up his mess.

He's not popular but you can't overthrow a president, he's got a term to sit. However, the mid terms offer an opportunity to remove him through legal process.

Over throwing leaders is something that happens in dictatorships.... hopefully it never comes to that because it never ends well.....you end up with a military regime

And Obama warned Americans about this....no one listened.

I dont think you'll like high prices for fuel (priced in USD) higher inflation, a poor economy as the rest of world goes into recession.

The wider problem is most Americans are thick, i mean when the UK had a school shooting, we banned handguns, when the US has a school shooting, they celebrate the right to have more guns.....

How thick is that?
