LEGAL executive orders. These little hitlers are issuing executive orders on top of orders that will never pass the Constitutional litmus test when they get to the courts. They know it but continue to issue them counting on them being in force long enough for them to accomplish their agenda. When the court says no, they will say OK, sorry, I'll rescind the order. And in many cases the liberal courts will intentionally delay, delay, delay to help their lefty friends.
And when we say cops are our friends it doesn't mean we attend parties with them and exchange Christmas cards, it means they are there for the good of the people and if you are following the law they don't bother you (generally) and often will help if they see a need. Calling them friends is akin to referring to an ally in a war as a friend.
I think you missed part of his statement, the orders are considered LEGAL until they are challenged and courts have ruled or put a stay on enforcement.
We refer to the police, the sheriff, etc as LAW ENFORCEMENT. Not judge or prosecutor, or defense attorney.
They can only do what they are ordered to do. They are derelict in their duties if they do not enforce legal orders, regardless of their personal opinion. They can prioritize, to make best use of their resources, but if the local executive says shut it down, they have to shut it down.
As long as I am on my soap box.....
I think what we are seeing is a grab, illegal grab, for political power in this country.
If you look at the state with the most draconian rules, that are looking to drag it on the longest, they are led by democrats.
The longer it goes on, the more likely they will get mail in ballots. 100% chance of voter fraud with mail in ballots.
