Amen, brother.
Ed Zactly.
That's why the American left might wanna think real hard and long about the fascist police-state iron-rule they are creating here. We might just have a Pinochet come along to set it straight.
He may be a dictator, butt he’s OUR dictator.
Bears repeating in large font as a warning to all Trumpees...
This is flagrantly dishonest. Ted Cruz will do the same and he doesn't have baggage from his days on the left to explain. That's because he was never on the left. Cruz doesn't get the attention because it is all focused on Trump.....for now.
The constitution has already blown up. Trump is Obama’s child.
Trump hasn’t advocated “killing the Constitution”, that I am aware of.
Everything he’s said he’ll do, to “transform” us back to being a great country, again, can be done within the bounds of our Constitution. We have so many laws that aren’t even being enforced, now.
Once Trump is elected, and the wall is built, laws enforced and welfare and other *benefits* are restricted, folks will leave on their own.
He can do other things to diminish or reverse what destruction 0bola and the progressives - in both parties - have done, without “killing” the Constitution.
Now, the key is for our country, to set it back to normal AND THEN STOP. Like George Washington might have.
If the left comes up with bloody murderous hit squads and a tyranny of terror and torture, we must -- like Pinochet -- come up with bloody murderous hit squads and a tyranny of terror and torture until the leftist threat is removed..... Then return to a Republic.
I don’t understand this at all. I don’t support making anybody a dictator. I don’t support anybody killing the Constitution. I don’t know where people are getting the idea that Trump would do either of this.
But if those are the things that would have to come with Trump, then I’d have to ditch my support of him.
If this is the way the collective thought is going, than I highly suggest we dial it back.
Even if Trump would refuse dictatorial power, the fact that his adorers openly advocate for it is beyond troubling.
If they embrace tyranny once, they will do it again.
Now we’ve moved beyond individual posts advocating this kind of thing. We have a link to some blog calling for the killing of the Constitution.
I remember a few months ago when someone was immediately banned for proposing just that.
> “ And ask yourself, would anyone else Cruz, Rubio, Walker Bush be willing to violate the Constitution in order to save the Constitution? ***I think not.*** “
WTF? Where is this crap coming from? Has Donald Trump mentioned violating the Constitution? ***I think not.***
“this article just makes it all the more real”...
Not in any rational way.
Of course there’s always a risk the Constitution is so abused and misinterpreted that it is just a fiction. But some blogger’s ‘feelings’- which happen to produce a click-drawing headline- is scant evidence.
And they will be sorely disappointed. If the Donald wins the nomination you will seem him run to the middle so fast it will make your head spin. He will water down every position he's taking now. I do enjoy Trump and how he's shaking up the process and sticking it in the eye of the GOPe but I don't trust him for a second.
“The damage to the Constitution is done.”
Yes, I see it as having no more real world observance than if it had never existed. If we had a government that suddenly began to follow it that government would be condemned as illegitimate. Only a very tiny percentage of Americans actually have some idea of what the wording of the constitution is and fewer still have any idea of the true meaning now that we have courts up to and including the supreme court making up new meanings to suit their purpose. Maybe one in one thousand Americans are aware that the constitution guarantees a Republican form of government or what that means.
My answer would be, ""I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uhmmm, some people out there in our nation don't have maps and uh, I believe that our, I, education like such as, uh, South Africa, and uh, the Iraq, everywhere like such as, and I believe that they should, uhhh, our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S., uh, should help South Africa, it should help the Iraq and the Asian countries so we will be able to build up our future, for us.
And, that’s exactly why Trump is effective. He’s been on the other side and knows how they operate. This is what the GOPe and even conservatives don’t understand - they can’t win against the rats with their same old, tired methods. They need to use the left’s tactics on them, but, fail to see that. Yes, even Cruz is kind of blind to that fact.
Bears repeating in large font as a warning to all partisans.
I guess you trusted all those we sent to Congress to do what they said they would do? How’d that work out for you?
You’re not beautiful enough to get away with that kind of answer. You’re probably not even blonde.
Disinformation and dumb article.
Trump never said he would violate the Constitution. In fact, the article never spelled out just how Trump would violate it. It just claims he would.
