The party of “patriotism” everyone. This is their guy… the same guy whose defense for trying to overthrow the government and install himself as dictator is “I never said I swore an oath to uphold the constitution”
Not just that, but the ones for whom the freedoms enshrined in the Constitution are the beginning, middle, and end of their entire personal identity. They have a section of the Constitution tatooed on their fucking bodies, and they still support a man who would just as soon use the damned thing as toilet paper.
If Trump can argue the technicality that he never specifically said “support”, we can argue ths technicality that the 2nd doesn’t specifically say “guns”.
It says the right to “bear arms.” So if I want to graft a pair of cybernetically enhanced black bear arms to my body, I should have the right to do so! (As part of a well organized Bear Arm Militia, of course.)
Anyone who makes one thingTM their entire raison d’etre is always a little… let’s go with off for politeness. But the 2nd Amendment ones are just walking red flags.
Can penis size be negative?
Yeah but the guys who have that problem tend to be way less insecure than this guy
Innie?
The Second Amendment is so awkwardly worded. You can tell it was initially drafted, then the middle part of the sentence (third line on that guy’s back) added in later.
The us right wing is entirely the “there must be outgroups to bind and in groups to protect” mindset. Everything else is after the fact justification.
“The demagogue is one who preaches doctrines he knows to be untrue to men he knows to be idiots.” - H. L. Mencken
wait, so does that mean he was never actually president?
I guess his supreme court nomination are void then. Nice.
Worse than that, he wants the job again, and he’s on his way to being the Republican nominee.
He’s going to win and he’s going to finish the job of dismantling the United States of America. He’s quite open about it.
Apparently the oath that military folks take actually has the word “support” in it, but the one the president takes says “preserve, protect and defend.”
Donald Trump… the sovereign citizen of world leaders.
This man is a tyrant.
No, he is bought by foreign influence and has discovered a way to monetize dismantling the United States
Can be both.
His supporters should be really mad about this. Generally they are the ones that invoke the Constitution anytime their lifestyle is inconvenienced.
Yeah but everything they do and say is in bad faith.
Lock him up! Lock him up! Lock him up!
When “Donald Trump says….”
What follows is absolute bullshit.
And Donald Trump said ….
Nothing, you idiots, Donald Trump’s dead, he’s locked in my basement.
If only!
But Q said it was Biden that got replaced by a lizard people flash clone
Very rarely, Trump is right accidentally. For example, recently he said that the true threat to America is coming from within. He meant the left, but he was accidentally right. The real threat is coming from within the US. To see it, though, Trump just needs to look in a mirror or look at the people attending his rallies.
When are we going to collectively decide to excise the cancer that is Christian Conservatism in the U.S.?
All of these morons have happened before and all of these morons will happen again.
When you figure it outs let’s get rid of the plague that is Atheist Liberals
What are they doing?
His personality disorders renders him incapable of supporting the Constitution.
Trump feels he is more important than it.
He probably had his fingers crossed and his ears stuffed with gold cheese puffs
In the picture of him swearing an oath to support the constitution, he has a hand on the bible and another raised, so he must have been crossing his toes. That totally counts…in kindergarten.
When the case is super weak, look for toe crossing in the next court filing.
I can’t wait for the mental gymnastics MAGA people will do when they get asked about this.
Ever think about how if Bill Clinton had called the mother of a recently KIA marine without knowing his name we would still be hearing about it?
I haven’t heard about that since the month it happened.
Bill Clinton didn’t know how to manage a scandal - do something much worse right away to distract everyone.
