I think if Trump ran in BOTH the Dem and GOP primaries he would win them both.
We do not need to violate the Constitution to follow it.
We simply need to follow it with exactness...Cruz will do this.
Trump may not. That’s my biggest fear of Trump...and this article just makes it all the more real. That three are foolish American talking about it and approving it. They know not what they may create...but history teaches us, and so did the founders.
Violating your oath is not only illegal, it is treasonous...no matter what side of the ideological divide you are on.
So, while I would vote for Trump in a heartbeat over Hillary or any DNC candidate, I would continue to have this concern.
And should the concern bear out, and Trump begin violating and destroying the constitution, I would speak out JUST AS LOUDLTY AGAINST IT and FIGHT JUST AS HARD AGAINST IT as I would against the traitorous bastard Obama.
My question for all the candidates.
If you could run and win dictatorial power, would you accept the job? Why or why not?
'Course, when he was there he only voted on about 50% of the bills before him. And even then he only voted "present".
Right with you. Anyone willing to bust up the Constitution on any grounds, ever slightly, is not a trustworthy individual and is not fit to be POTUS.
The Constitution has been amended many times. It could happen again.
from A Lincoln Preface by Carl Sandburg:
“I don’t intend precisely to throw the Constitution overboard, but I will stick it in a hole if I can,” he told a Cabinet officer. The enemy was violating the Constitution to destroy the Union, he argued, and therefore, “I will violate the Constitution, if necessary, to save the Union.” He instructed a messenger to the Secretary of the Treasury, “Tell him not to bother himself about the Constitution. Say that I have that sacred instrument here at the White House, and I am guarding it with great care.”
If we allow the other side to act at will then restrict ourselves to playing by the rules we we have the upper hand, even when it is possible to undo the mess progressives have caused, then we are screwed beyond redemption.
You have to define “violate”. It didn’t take much “violating” to have prohibition overturned.
Trump loves challenges. He usually overcomes them.
What is a greater challenge than to be the Chief Executive Officer of the United States of America. He is in to win.
Yes, wait until they come fully to this realization.
That’s why Cruz should be Attorney General.
We have a president willing to violate the constitution which has contributed to the anger in conservatives.
We cannot tolerate it on our side either.
How is Trump willing to kill the Constitution?
I think the GOPe knows exactly how the the country feels
about them, Trump, polls etc but don’t give a crap. Like liberals, they’re elitist snobs and they think we’re idiots and of course racists who don’t know any better. Listen to Dana Perino when they bring up Trump for instance. And Luntz is a dolt.
Trump is our non-violent American revolution.
Trump is necessary right now to defeat the combined communist forces of the GOPe, Democrats, and the media.
Using the same tactics to undo much of what Obama has done, that he used to do it in the first place, is not only permissible, but totally necessary.
Constantly allowing an opponent to use tactics to gain an advantage that you will not use to reverse those advantages is not only stupid, but -self-destructive.
