A United States president doesn't know if he is supposed to uphold the Constitution. Why is that? Because he has said on many occasions to change the Constitution, to eliminate it.

The American people knew he was dishonest when they voted for him.

@MistyCee I knew he was dishonest well before he even ran for office. The first time I really heard of him, outside of his home alone 2 cameo and general reputation of being and rich guy, was when he was trying to sue Scotland because some windmills were visible from one of his golf courses. Everything after that just got worse.

Ultimately he represents the blind rage of the American work class who has been screwed over by a system designed to extract anything of value from them and funnel it upwards. He plays to the anger. He targets easy groups to target, so it feels like something can actually be done. Because people know deep down that trying to address the real problems are very difficult and will be a slow process and it's easier to just lash out in rage and feel better about your position by making sure others are pushed into even worse positions by comparison.

It's almost karmic in the way he represents so many of the real problems dragging the nation down while his supporters writhe and seethe at the powerless.

@MistyCee This shows the American people themselves are dishonest. I think what they’re all hoping for is not Trump’s fair treatment of anyone, but for him to be biased in their favor.

@Reject One of his base said it best in his first term. She got upset with him because "He's hurting the wrong people."
@Reject I hear you. They want a piece of his action.
@ViciDraco Yeah, hurting really is at the heart of MAGA.
They're special sociopaths.

@ViciDraco It makes me sad. The kind of people running our country. They only want to take when the original thing that made America great was how much we could give.
