This didn't started with Trump.

Do you remember the helicopters shooting at helpers in ambulances? The drones being sent to weedings? The children being shoot in beaches?

If somebody can kill Osama Bin Laden without a trial and to became an hero, and other can kill Soleimani without a trial, then other can kill Floyd also without a trial, or beat Ian Murdock, or make Aaron Swartz commit suicide...

Extrajudicial executions are the new normal, and this magic trick was being slowly deployed in front of our very eyes, for years. And anybody is in the menu. We all travel in the meat train now. All is allowed, because we accepted the new contract.

Yeah, the over-reach of executive power has been gathering pace since Bush 2, and neither Obama nor Trump have done anything about it.

Interestingly, the set of people complaining about each's actions are almost completely disjoint.
