I have an honest question

If the Ukrainian government can democratically permanently ban 11 opposition parties (mostly pro-Russian parties, but also including some leftist and socialist parties) -- https://www.rferl.org/a/ukraine-law-bans-pro-russia-parties-zelenskiy-signs/31849737.html -- why can't we ban just ONE opposition party, a clear and present danger, in this country? The party that obstructs everything progressive, the party that stands for everything evil in this country, the party that can only win elections through cheating and general deceit, the party that has openly stated its raison d'etre is to oppose and block everything legitimate presidents want to do for the greater good of the nation.

Ukraine is a democracy and they did it. Why don't we??

On military action in Syria

IF, and it's a big IF, the United States decides to engage in military action in Syria, whether it be a bombing campaign to actual boots on the ground, must the President (should the President) get congressional authorization to do so?

I say, yes, he should. Congress should always have to authorize any use of military force.

Think about it, can you think of one R**** president since, say, Dwight Eisenhower who actually won the presidency fair and square and without question? I can't.
