      1. It's good
      2. It's good to put out there even if it won't happen
      3. Lol it won't happen
      4. Even if it did happen, at most they'd "put away" a few cronies who would probably be pardoned anyway

      They don't want to set a precedent, because they all think "One day I'll be the cheeto in the white house".

      If I squint real hard I can kind of imagine this happening if war crimes are off limits. If it focuses on run-of-the-mill corruption and grifting it might at least get off the ground, even though it almost certainly wouldn't do anything significant.

    Is Swalwell too stupid to see why this would never work or is this just play-acting for the libs

        push him to be a dictator

        This has "I wasn't racist until the Democrats pushed me to be racist" energy. He's always wanted to be a dictator; we shouldn't be blaming that on Democrats proposing something halfway decent for once.

          My meaning was not to blame the Democrats. I am pointing out that this may be another excuse he uses to continue his attempts at a dictatorship.
