A lot of Trumpers here decorate their cars with "We the people..." in Constitution-style script. I wonder how much of it he needs to violate for them to see the disconnect.

Take their guns away and let's see what the bobble heads do.
Trump has the logic of a five year old.
"I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."
The oath of office has one stipulation. Just one.
He's taken it twice. He's such an evil man.
"to the best of my ability" is a pretty big loophole for Trump, who has no ability.
Can we arrest him NOW? Please?
Those people only understand the 2nd amendment, and think the first amendment should only apply to themselves.
I always go back to that early coronavirus briefing where a reporter questioned his authority to dictate state government lockdown policies and he just sat there stunned, repeating "when you're the president your authority is total because you have total authority, it's total..." It's been clear for years that this fucking guy never understood the job description, and rather than learning anything from experience, he's having it rewritten. The constitution isn't going to save us from that.
He has no idea what he is doing. Never has.
No, no he knows what he's doing. He's just not doing anything for anyone else other than himself and his ilk.
The answer is clearly "no." He's been doing unconstitutional shit since day 1, and nobody has stopped him.
Turns out as long as they have ( R ) next to their name, the president can operate with all the integrity of a five year old trying to get out of cleaning their room
To be fair, I don't know either. I mean he's supposed to, and he swore an oath to, but if nobody is going to enforce that then must he really? What happens if/when he doesn't?
Well, normally, impeachment.. now? hmm
Oh he literally forgot the oath of the presidency? Sounds like a good reason to invoke the 25th amendment.
You just gotta love it that this shit stain is supported by constitution lovers
"lovers"
Trump probably had his fingers crossed while he took the oath.
He didn't bother putting his hand on the Bible. Not that I care, but you'd think his "omg christian patriot doggy mommy" followers would say something.
There's only one correct answer and that's not it...
I AGREE! The Founders had NO IDEA what the Future would be LIKE when they Wrote it!
-People who VIGOROUSLY DEFEND School Shooters because of the Second Amendment!
