    That’s nice but rest assured we will not be consulted when they inevitably decide to further their mockery of the constitution and the very idea of patriotism.

    I bet every one of the three in ten have at some point called themselves a constitutionalist.

      I saw a Youtube comment the other day calling for Trump to throw away the constitution, declare himself king and execute judges who don’t enact his will. It had likes.

      I mean… it’s probably Russian bots? Right?

        Yes, it is 100% Russian bot glazing, but that is how propaganda works, some people see all tge bot activity and jump on board.

        Biggest Russian troll farm employs over 60,000 people to run tens of accounts at a time.

        Honestly it probably is. That’s the whole Russian method, sow dissent and make the other side hate and distrust each other. Find every division you can and build the “other” into an evil bogeyman. Of course the fact that the literal nazis have seen this as an opportunity gives it a grain of truth and there is always someone who really believes that.

      There will still be an election. Only white republican christian men will be allowed to vote though.

          They’re already pushing voter restriction laws to keep the deck stacked in their favor. Russia still has elections too just to keep the appearance of legitimacy, but we all know how fair and honest those are. Team trump will keep the grift going to keep things looking like everything is fair and the voters chose him.

      Nine ways from Sunday. I’m actually more surprised when I do have hope because the vast majority of the time I believe it is quite hopeless.

      They’ve already normalised the idea enough that they’re polling people about whether or not it should happen as if it’s a totally valid question to ask. That shouldn’t even be a question, the only response should be “no, fuck off, you can’t do that”. Once again the media are complicit in sanewashing and normalising this shit.

      The media has blatantly enabled this MFer for years by doing the whole ‘people are saying’ BS. Just STOP. Don’t repeat it. State that it’s illegal and impossible, and would be unconstitutional, and then stop.

    22/27 says he can’t.

    But 5/9 might decide if he can, and they have a history of demolishing democracy.

      But treason is carefully defined as something that only applies to giving aid to enemies of the US during a time of war. The US hasn’t declared war since WWII.

    This should be 10 out of 10 people. I’m not even American and I know more about American and their constitution than most Americans it seems.

    That fat orange Russian muppet should be in jail, not president.

      The constitution was ment to be rewritten and adjusted, because times are changing. Even these slave keeping cunts knew that. So i don’t think pointing at the constitution should mean too much. But it is hilarious that just suggesting that the 2nd amendment could maybe not be the best idea, makes the same people frothing out of their pie holes who also want to overthrow the government and keep the fattest most incompetent person in charge.

    There’s no need for a third term if the second term goes forever and never ends.

    Just sayin’…
