You don’t even have a quote or a line of the Constitution on which to base your airy assertion that the President has the power to suspend habeas corpus, and yet here you are. That’s pettifogging — and “living Constitution” b.s., rich and smelly.

I believe we all understand that the Constitution means absolutely nothing. Its deft defense by your hero renders it merely a fig leaf for those with the most guns. Might makes right. I seriously wish you would not try and resurrect what you heartily enjoyed destroying?
