Don’t see any evidence of Trump weighing in on COS. For a front-runner, I find it unsettling Trump also does not refer to the Constitution much, for this Constitutional Conservative.

If you think Trump is knowledgeable of the Constitution in the same way as a seasoned politician or historian, you’re missing the point. Trump is a reactionary. He’s going to be this nation’s “protest vote” against Obama. We’ve ceased being a rational constitutional republic and have degraded into a populist democracy. It’s all a big popularity contest, and Trump is winning despite his substance.

Even aside from Trump's possible awareness that the Constitution exists, introducing the COS into his message will only make it more complex, and will create new angles of attack against him. Perhaps that's what his people are telling him.
