Iran death penalty threat for abortion unlawful: UN rights experts

Believe it or not, even those wrongfully charged, still have their constitutional rights. Their rights, if they have been violated by any state or city or county or group, are still in effect and any wrongful conviction can be appealed. The ultimate decider is the supreme court, which is supposed to rule according to the constitution and civil rights.

Bringing up the exceptions to the rule, or the isolated cases, does not mean that their constitutional rights have been repealed for them.

For the whole country, the constitution and bill of rights, is still in effect. So, tell us when those rights were repealed, as you understand it.

A stolen election does not meant that, the constitution and the bill of rights have been repealed, and we still have those rights. Elections have been stolen in the past, and way into the past, but, our rights are still in effect. Even under those that might have stolen the elections, we still have our rights. and that's clear with the cases that Trump is having to fight. He's still using his rights to fight the crooked cases against him. Even if he loses any of those cases, he can appeal and chances are that he will win those appeals. In a country without those rights, he would have been imprisoned many years ago, or he would have been made to disappear. That there are exceptions where people are wrongfully charged and even imprisoned, does not mean that it is a regular practice.

When the U.S. become a full new China, then, I'll grant you the benefit of the doubt and we can agree fully with your stance. So, are we China yet?

“The Rights of the People” where only a billionaire can afford the legal fees are not actual constitutional rights.

One of the definitions of Cringe is believing in and sacrificing, and serving things which have obviously failed, and died.

If people choose to believe that the Constitution and Bill of Rights still obtains, even when it is ignored, selectively upheld, unequally applied... etc.

This is just Cringe Constitutionalism.

You are Cringe.

No-one in the UK, Canada, Australia believes in ‘Muh Rule of Law stuff any more.

We are past the Denial and Anger stages. Although some are stuck in the Bargaining and Depression stages.

“The Rights of the People” where only a billionaire can afford the legal fees are not actual constitutional rights.

Trump may be a billionaire, but, he's being treated as a lowly/common criminal and being prosecuted as such. True that he has the money and lawyers to fight the phony charges, but, how many times has a nobody/poor person been charged with the same type of crime(s). Trump is not being charged because he's a billionaire' he's being charged with the many phony charges because, he's the democrats' worst enemy. Not too many lowly and poor people will be gone after like Trump.

Regardless, Trump is being protected by his constitutional guaranteed rights and anybody else would have the same rights, even if a lawyer is appointed for that person because he/she can't afford it.

Like I said before, which you seem to ignore, in any society with no constitutional guarantees, Trump would have been imprisoned a long time ago or made to disappear, even with all his money.

Democrats and republicans and all people with other political affiliations, understand that, the constitution and bill of rights are still applicable, and no single party or group can make that disappear from people's minds. As long as people know their rights, and don't willingly surrender those rights, we still have a constitution and bill of rights protecting us. We hear it all the time, on TV and radio and from the internet and from the written word, that, if something does not follow the constitution and the rights granted to us, that a charge might be UNCONSTITUTIONAL. We hear it all the time with the current case being heard against Trump. Even most democrats have come to the conclusion that, the NYC case has unconstitutional charges against Trump. UNCONSTITUTIONAL, meaning that people still look to the constitution for protections against illegal prosecutions.

But, you still haven't told me when the constitution and bill of rights were repealed. Let's have it, and don't just search the internet for cases which seem to indicate that, the constitution is no longer valid.
