Should we set aside the Constitution?

[Jarod]

How many of you agree with Trump that we should set aside parts of the Constitution and appoint Trump to the presidency?

No. Better to set aside Trump and all of his MAGAt followers as being anti-American white supremacist terrorist supporters.

This is pathetic Trump, all the more pathetic because he doesn't realize how pitiful that comment makes him look.

The rightwing spent message board careers hollering about defending the Constitution to the death. Now is not the time to go radio silent when the leader of their party advocates terminating the Constitution

Their claim is that is not what he said, as usual.

 

[Jarod]

It is exactly what he said. While it is embarrassing, and pathetic for Trump, I think it says more about his followers and a cancer that is growing in American culture.

Conservatives do not really care about the constitution, George W. Bush famously said it’s just a piece of paper.

Next excuse was that Trump was just kidding around

They must long for a king or a dictator. That is what Trump aspires to be and has mentioned it several times since 2016.

Thanks for outing yourself as a fascist

I think the white Christian rightwing is mostly just concerned with maintaining white Christian males at the top of the pecking order, and the form of government that can ensure that doesn't really matter. It might be why they like Putin.

too late to worry about that, it got shitcanned long ago.

Because he asked a question? It's entirely legitimate, and not one person who supports Trump has answered it.

It's a yes or no question. Trump wants to suspend parts of the Constitution (you know, those parts that would prevent him to be appointed President). Do you agree this should happen? Yes or no? Or is that question too hard for you?

It’s been obvious since before he even ran for president the first time, that is who he is, so his supporters, either want/like that or they are fucking idiots. I suspect it’s a little of both.

Yeah, I’m a fascist because I support the constitution. You are not a fascist, although you support the man who wants to be a dictator.

They are stumped.

Agreed. In short, they are anti-American and pro-authoritarian.
