    Trump has no problem with what he said and how he's being quoted and interpreted in the media
    He's had plenty of time to try and nutrealize his f*ck-ups with his usual "I was joking" "it was satire" "fake news".
    It's exactly what the desperate dangerous man wants, all his devotees to start chanting "Down with the Constitution."

    In their minds they're reading: "To prevent massive fraud we need to terminate the Constitution, etc." Pray tell on what basis would elections ever take place if that was done? Laws were ignored in this election cycle that may very well have influenced the results. Ignoring or terminating rules is the only way to allow massive fraud to occur.

    I'm not moved by who you quote. I'm able to analyze a sentence and make up my own mind as to how it can be interpreted. I'm waiting for Trump to speak to determine if I can believe his thinking on what he said. I'll leave the attacks to the rest of you.

    Repeating what Trump said is now "attacks" LOL

    Why would you now be waiting for Trump to speak when you've been so sure of yourself telling us in post after post what he really meant?

    It's really very simple. The person that speaks knows what they meant better than those that listen or read. I didn't tell you what he meant. I told you how I interpreted what he said.

    Trump didn't say "terminate all the articles of the Constitution". The Left wing media posts a lie and you people just latch right on to it. Just when we thought the Leftists couldn't get more rediculous.

    It's been a tactic of the media and the far left since he started his campaign to run for President. The media has been telling lies and censoring the truth quite sometime now. I am amazed so people actually seem "OK" with it.

    When a person blatantly lies about another person, is that an attack?

    CUD..Crazy Uncle Donnie.

    "Rep. David Cicilline (D-R.I.) said Trump “has become like the crazy uncle down at Mar-a-Lago, saying things which make no sense in America democracy.”

    So explain this to me - if the only way to alter the rules and regulations of the Constitution is through amendments - and Trump is not
    calling for Amending the Constitution, but suspending said rules so he can be President - just what exactly is he doing to the Constitution?
    Inquiring minds want to know.

    It is literally stupefying how people keep defending Trump's Egregious Attack on The Constitution...
    Then again, Trump had it all figured out (long ago):

    You stated: "The person that speaks knows what they meant better than those that listen or read."

    So following this "logic" no one but Trump knows if he really is an idiot.

    Well that is idiotic. No wait is it? Did I mean idiotic or did I mean its idiotic to think you know what I mean idiotic to mean or its idiotic to think an idiot who says idiotic things is or is not an idiot.

    Good God the idiocy on this forum spewed in an attempt to try justify Trump being an idiot has no limitation.

    He said
    "A Massive Fraud of this type and magnitude allows for the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the Constitution"

    If parts of the Constitution are "terminated" without proper procedure but rather by edict, then the whole Constitution is rendered impotent and unenforceable. Justifying the elimination of any part of it is to justify the elimination of all of it. Hence it would terminate the Constitution.

    Such is the character of this authoritarian dictator wannabee who would eliminate the Constitution and our entire representative democracy. And you think that's a small thing that may be good?????

    At this point someone needs to ask Democrats, Republicans, the FBI, the CIA, and the DOJ a question: "ARE WE GOING TO ALLOW THIS COUNTRY TO BECOME A FASCIST DICTATORSHIP, OR ARE WE GOING TO PREVENT IT?"

    Which is it? Choose!

    If the answer is that we are going to prevent it, then start preparing the National Guard, the military, and all other forces to combat it and prevent it!

    Any failure to prepare to prevent it is a declaration that the USA should go fascist.

    How about we try dealing with this in the courts first, instead of going full on freak out mode?
