That's the harder than it sounds part... but it's not an impossibility, given we already had a few break ranks on the Canada tariffs. Just not an easy or likely one. There's also the court approach too mentioned in the article, which currently is being headed by a Libertarian of all things...

Have yet to be able to try a Pathfinder 2E game. Played multiple 1E in the past though. Currently playing a D&D 5E campaign on one of my Discord servers weekly though using my werewolf paladin character I've shared art of over on my Mayhem thread... though an AU version of her since it's set...
