Trump Suggests ‘Termination’ of U.S. Constitution Allowable over 2020 Twitter Scandal [UPDATE: The author is spinning. Trump's actual words are now posted below.]

Former President Donald Trump suggested the “termination” of the United States Constitution could be allowable in response to the bombshell report that the Democrat Party colluded with Twitter to suppress the Hunter Biden laptop story before the 2020 election.

The former president made his observation via his Truth Social account on Saturday following journalist Matt Taibbi’s thorough report on Twitter’s internal communications during the 2020 elections at the behest of newly-minted CEO Elon Musk.


The author of the Breitbart article above is spinning (lying). Here's what Trump actually posted.

You’re right but look at how the wording can be misconstrued.

In this highly charged political climate I wish he had reaffirmed his beliefs in a better manner. If it takes us several tries to understand it then what will the public school indoctrinated people think when they hear the CNN style panels interpret it?

As you explained, Trump was saying the heinous actions of the Dem in vote fraud has set aside the Constitution, not that he had the idea to do that.

Trump is trolling the people who supported the fraud of 2020.

The only way he gets back to the White House, is to defeat ‘DeSantis Claus’ in the 2024 Republican Primaries & then defeat Biden in the General Election.

There is no alternative way, he’s just messing with people that don’t know our form of government.(Plus erudite Constitutional Types who are ‘so serious’)

US oversight of denazification lasted for just two years; and then it was just handed over to Adenauer, who declared it “over” three years later. Think it was executed properly?

Whew!

What will it take for you nimrods to grasp that Trump
believes the managers at twitter should be removed so
that they cannot invalidate the First Amendment rights
of those who want to air Biden dirty laundry?

That’s what he is alluding to. Can’t you figure that
out on your own?

What’s a “hell no”?

Just read the quote in context; it’s been posted all over the thread. Looks like he’s accusing the Democrats of “termination” of the Constitution.

Because it advances CC 27’s agenda.

The headline is completely misleading. Must be the weekend crew at Breitbart.

Not a good choice of words by Trump. He needs to energize his internal “regulator” so that it tells him to not speak until he has thought through his words and maybe also vet those words with a TRUSTED and KNOWLEDGEABLE COLLEAGUE.

Yeah, I think Breitbart has suffered some mid-life changes
of recent.

If these posts are legit, then he is saying that he knows there is no Constitutional way to redress the wrongdoing of 2020, but that since that wrongdoing was so egregious there must be extra constitutional acts taken to remove Biden and install Trump. In my opinion this would disqualify Trump from ever being considered for POTUS.

Reading his post, it seems he is implying that the seriousness of the crimes and the fact that the Constitution does not address such gross fraud to swing elections that a change in criminal process is in order. He is definitely not saying he favors scrapping the Constitution.

Don't take them to be fools and dimwits.

They know perfectly well what Trump said, and meant.

They are actually posting for the fools who will believe them, implying that trump is actually willing to dump the USC.

So, who is the fool?

Those who post such drivel, or the fools who lap it up and spread it far and wide?

“US oversight of denazification lasted for just two years; and then it was just handed over to Adenauer, who declared it “over” three years later. Think it was executed properly?”

Probably not, and probably for the same reasons that Reconstruction in the South was carried out half-heartedly and abandoned not long after. The Union was plum worn out from the bloodshed of the war, the Army had been drawn down to a tiny fraction of the Grand Army of the Republic, and everyone wanted to get back to the business of business. The guards at the War Crimes Trials were in fact, former Estonian Waffen SS, no fooling. Because the occupying powers had such severe manpower problems after Demobilization. I’ve not read much on the Werwulf guerilla movement, but a few documentaries I’ve watched indicate that the action in post-war Germany was about as hot as Iraq was more recently. Lots of terror attacks on Allied soldiers. This was met with brutal reprisal. Anyone caught engaged in pro-Nazi sabotage was hanged, unlike our more recent failed counter-guerilla campaigns. While the civil de-Nazification program could have probably stood to go on longer, there was the war exhaustion to consider, and the election of Adenauer greatly calmed German resistance, as they finally had their own elected government.

TO ALL
Read about the “Continuity of Government”

There is precedent for his statement. DO SOME RESEARCH do not pay attention to the MSM and those who do not know

Do you believe that the Biden Twitter agreement was
Constitutional?

What about the voices that Twitter silenced?

Are you saying we couldn’t take away the right of it’s
managers to exercise their right to silence others?

Yikes folks.

The brains have left the building...

I don’t think he means that it. Although, if he does, I think mean it in the sense that we will wish we had done that when we realize as a country what the DNC intends to do when they take complete control.

I don’t think he’s actually suggesting that we take extra-Constitutional measures, just that we will wish that we had before we had to.
