Civil War

It is completely natural. Babies are not inherently evil.
That's an opinion you can't back up, nor can I back up mine. I say you're wrong. See what happens if no one teaches proper behavior and morals as the 'purely good' baby grows. I've seen my share of those results. We're all sinners by default, that includes infants.

If anyone else is reading this, please spare me the question 'how is a newborn evil' I could turn it around and ask how is a newborn known as being good, is it the cute looks or the crying all night. lol It's interesting that in many cases the very first word we teach infants to understand is NO. It's very important for many reasons, not the least of which is safety. Baby crawls near the fireplace, NO, or baby moves toward anything dangerous NO or baby smashes toys, NO and so on. This is only the first things that a new parent will observe, as time rolls on many more things will happen that despite any and all efforts to try and mitigate unexpected bad behavior it will just keep coming all the way to adulthood. If those behaviors are not mitigated as they happen you'll have a hellion on your hands
Fine, but I think you very well might be surprised. People naturally want to live, not die, even in combat.
Obviously, I don't remember saying people 'wanted' to die in combat, did I? In my view, it's a dodge to suggest that my point is equal to suicide, which is ridiculous. I'm fine with your focus on precise meanings of words it's quite relevant in many cases, but many words have more than one meaning, as you can confirm by looking in any dictionary.

You won't find any explanation anywhere on the willingness to die for one's country equated to suicide except for a few quotes that attempt to make a point relevant to events the person is experiencing or some rant by libtards. Patton's quote, I think, was made to stress the importance of doing your very best not to die. My statement doesn't aim to suggest someone should be or ever is willing to commit suicide for their country. So, if you'd like to have a debate about the precise uses of any number of words of your choosing, I'll consider it.
Fallacy fallacy. Bringing up Patton had a significant purpose. People naturally want to live, not die, even in combat. Everything in basic training even emphasizes this.
Again, just your opinion. You no more understand what people 'naturally do' than I. I also have an opinion backed up by my observations that are different from yours or Patton's. (He wasn't a God, he was good at leading men into battle, I'll give you that.) That said, I just explained how I read Patton's quote, but you can take anything you want from it. Often, people interpret great quotes, historical events, the Bible, works of art, music, etc., differently. Some are closely aligned and others are not, but they're all valid to the individual interpreting them.
A suicidal statement, and others around him can't trust such a man.
Completely ridiculous, People attempting understand each other in good faith couldn't possible interpret a person willingness to die for their Country as meaning they're DANGEROUS from being suicidal. What's that all about? If theirs some relevant point of that comment, I'm clearly not smart enough to understand it.
A soldier is certainly willing to risk everything for his country, but not to die for it. It does not serve the country to commit suicide.
Again, failing to debate in good faith. For the record that's my opinion. This thing you're doing is wasting time and energy. If it's suppose to serve as a comparison to think on, it misses the mark for me. It's blatantly obvious that no one wins when someone commits suicide. I learned that at a very young age. Maybe someone else will benefit from it.
I mentioned both. Go back and read it again.
Fair enough, I'll concede without going back.
I am not suggesting he cancels any part of his agenda (Trump certainly won't if he can help it!). I am suggesting that the way something gets done might change slightly.
OK
You asked for my opinion. I gave it. Fine. We'll leave it at that.
OK
No, it isn't.

The President is given certain powers and authorities by the Constitution of the United States for a reason. Congress is too slow. As the United States was originally organized:

The House represents the will of the people,
The Senate represents the will of the States as States (in other words, the State governments).
The President is the executive. He runs the government when the other two are not in session, and reports back to these houses on what he is doing. He is also an advocate for one opinion or another in either house. This is significant, since he has a limited veto power.
The courts are the judges. They determine if someone broke a law (including someone in either house. No court has authority to change or
interpret the Constitution. They must operate UNDER the Constitution.

Why two houses? The House shifts literally with the wind, since it represents the opinions of the people.
The Senate does not shift with the wind so badly, due to longer terms and by being representatives of the State governments.
None of this changes the fact that legislation does in fact make it harder for reversal from the first liberal to gain power. The fact that it's slower doesn't change any of my arguments. AGAIN, I'm suggesting the bill remains clear and easily read and understood by all Americans, making the typical opposition a bill faces MUCH more difficult for any Republican House or Senate member. This, of course, is part of my opinion. Again, framed as what I would tell Trump if asked.

Keep in mind all of the things in your plan can be done in mine as well, in fact, I would absolutely advise Trump to do those EOs as quickly as possible, which he's doing as we speak.
Since the 17th amendment was ratified, the Senate has become another house representing the people (not the States), leaving the States with NO representation in the government they created! Also, the Senate tends to shift with the wind more, but at least still retains it's longer term of service.
Maybe true, but a different debate. Not saying I'm interested in having one right now, but maybe down the line after some thought, and that's only if I disagree.
In my opinion, the 17th amendment should be repealed, and the Senate returned to it's original role. The States should have representation in the government as States.
Covered right up there. lol

Fine. Let's leave it at that.
I suspect you already knew I couldn't do that. lol Just as I know you will return with some matter of contention. I wouldn't want it any other way.

non aggression is sometimes natural in humans.
 
rationality is human nature.

Sure, I can roll with that. Thanks for the cool pic.

It's a personality trait, we all have a different mix of the 5 major groups with all combinations including the many sub-categories. They're natural as the color of your eyes are. Evil in inherent and can't be avoided.
 
I wanted to point out something interesting concerning one of my earlier assertion that OBBB doesn't need to be complicated.. When a typical bill becomes law, it's packed with pages and pages of text, making them tediously boring and difficult to read. Many times we're given a couple days at best to read it. This means we depend on the media for the 'important bits,' and they're just great at their jobs. Right? There are lots of shady deals, helping the lawmakers on both sides, get rich, fast. It's been that way so long, many think it has to be.

Now, for a comparison: that huge spending bill Congress tried to push through in December last year, was 502,775 words long. The entire U.S. Constitution? Just 7,591 words. Which one had more time to debate, had more impact, and is the envy of the world? Clearly, it's better and possible to keep things simple.
