The Republican leadership should realize what Theissen has, “Trump is “spinning out of control”.
He is a loser for the party. Cut him loose, the sooner, the better.

For the sake of the Republican Party, I hope they are not that fixated, and blind to the truth that Trump has lost whatever he once had that made him President.

"One of Donald Trump’s greatest achievements in office was his remaking of the American judiciary with the appointment of three outstanding Supreme Court justices and hundreds of lower court judges who defend the Constitution from the federal bench each day.

But now, with just a few bizarre social media posts, Trump has repudiated that entire legacy.
After the Supreme Court two weeks ago unanimously rejected his request to stop a congressional committee from obtaining his tax returns, Trump blasted the court, using the language of the left-wing critics who question the legitimacy of his judicial appointments. “The Supreme Court has lost its honor, prestige, and standing, & has become nothing more than a political body, with our Country paying the price. … Shame on them!” Trump declared on his Truth Social account — oblivious to the fact that these words could just as easily have been uttered by Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.) or outgoing House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.). If anything, the court’s actions in this case — and the refusal of any Trump judges or justices to embrace his election denial conspiracy theories — prove precisely the opposite: He appointed jurists whose only loyalty is to our laws and our Constitution.

But apparently, loyalty to our laws and our Constitution is not the standard Trump seeks to uphold. Quite the opposite. In a rant without precedent in the annals of presidential rhetoric, Trump called this weekend for the “termination” of the Constitution. “A massive Fraud of this type and magnitude allows for the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the Constitution,” he thundered, adding, “Our great ‘Founders’ did not want, and would not condone, False & Fraudulent Elections!”

This is many things, but it’s not conservatism. Respect for the Constitution and its original meaning is the bedrock of the modern conservative movement — so fundamental that House GOP leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) announced that Republicans will read every word of the Constitution out loud on the floor of the chamber when they take control in January. For someone seeking the Republican presidential nomination to call for the Constitution’s termination is nothing short of heresy. With his latest missive, Trump has embraced a form of secular sedevacantism — the erroneous belief held by some extreme traditionalist Catholics that there is currently no valid pope — arguing that Joe Biden is an illegitimate “anti-president” and that he, Trump, should either be reinstalled in office or a new election should be called. (How this would be accomplished, he does not say.) I’m sorry, but this is bat-guano crazy. It should be rejected and repudiated by every self-respecting conservative.

Ruth Marcus: Trump’s call for suspending the Constitution is too dangerous to ignore

It’s time for Trump supporters to acknowledge a sad but undeniable truth: Trump is spinning out of control.

Yes, his presidency was filled with historic accomplishments, and he was treated unfairly by his critics in Congress and the media. But since the election, something has snapped. He has descended into a spiral of conspiracy theories and personal grievances. He has surrounded himself with the political dregs. He dines with Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, after the rapper made virulent antisemitic comments and Nick Fuentes, a notorious white supremacist — in a meeting that was apparently arranged by Milo Yiannopoulos, a former Breitbart editor who was purged for defending pedophilia. Trump blasts the Supreme Court justices he appointed because they will not do his bidding from the bench.

And now, in calling for the termination of the Constitution and his reappointment to the presidency, he’s apparently lost touch with reality.

Fellow conservatives, it’s time to move on — because Trump is unstable, and because he cannot win. With his behavior since losing office, Trump has made himself irreversibly toxic to swing voters. A new Marquette Law School national poll finds that his unfavorable rating has surged to 66 percent — with about one-third of Republicans and independents now viewing him negatively.

Ask yourself: Why was Democrats’ anti-MAGA strategy so effective in the midterm elections? Because Trump, the supposed branding genius, has irretrievably tarnished his own brand. For swing voters, “MAGA” no longer means all the great Trump policies that a majority of Americans approved of while he was in office. It means election denial, the refusal to graciously concede or preside over a peaceful transition, the incitement of the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol — and now his public call to suspend the U.S. Constitution.

But instead of figuring this out, he is doubling down on the insanity. He sees the polls showing that the number of
Republicans favoring a 2024 run has declined precipitously and that he is trailing Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis in multiple states. So he is trying to energize his base with red meat. But the more he does so, the more he drives away swing voters and makes himself unelectable.

The question is: Can Trump supporters see what Trump can’t? Democrats have now won three elections running against Trump. Will the GOP let them do it a fourth time? Republicans have a plethora of outstanding leaders who could step in and lead the conservative movement to victory in 2024. Trump is not one of them.
If Republicans nominate this man, they will lose — and they will deserve to."

Satire is satire because it must be about a grain of truth. In this case, Trump has openly said the Constitution as it applies to the 2020 election results should be “terminated”. One doesn’t pick and chose what part of the Constitution or the rule of law is applicable to suit narcissistic delusions.
I lost the election so let us now change the rules so that I can be a winner.

Dude, I have suspended my threads about Trump for weeks now.. You are wrong.
Today, I posted that Trump wanted to “terminate” the Constitution, which I obviously thought was post worthy. Postworthy because Trump has entered the race to become President again. Who would support a man who doesn’t respect the Constitution?
Trump is a candidate for 2024- that matters to me, but I don’t think about Trump in my daily life other than the dangerous man that he is, and his misguided supporters. I am not having a Trump meltdown. True, I am sickened by him—every American should be. But your attack on me means nothing, and is unfounded.
Stick to the issue: a Presidential candidate who publicly states that the Constitutional rules should be terminated because he lost the election. Please address the issue: Trump and his anti Constitutional position, without infusing your dislike for me.




Address the Trump issue, not my

Not one Trump supporter has posted a word about Trump, and what he said about “terminating” the Constitution. Why not? You guys must have some something to add to this thread.

Trump has a history of disparaging every American institution; and now he publicly says the Constitution should be “terminated” so he could still be President.
Anyone who supports this man is equally unpatriotic.

Uh... that is, unless I don't get re-elected.


Or unless the Supreme Court justices rule against me.

What about Trump wanting to “terminate” the Constitution. No comment? Is that not important as well?

Make a comment about Trump wanting to “terminate” the Constitution so he can be declared a winner.
You add nothing but insults. Be a better man.

Read the “Eastman Memo”. It was a written plan to circumvent the Constitutional process of certifying an elected President. The author himself admitted that it was not legal, but neither he nor Trum0 cared. Trump then pressured Pence to circumvent the process and incited a violent riot to disrupt the process.
It should not be a shock that Tr7m0 now has put his thoughts about the Constitution in writing—he has no understanding of its importance,and no respect for it. Never did.
Give me a break—the man is not a patriot. He disparages every institution in the country, even the Constitution.

To say that trump claiming that past actions have "allowed for" the suspension of rules, including the Constitution, is trump advocating for the suspension of the constitution, is TDS at work.

He was claiming it has already happened.

He is mistaken and I can't believe I am defending the idiot, but you folks are reaching on this one.

It is very much like y'all claiming he said there were "very fine people" on the nazi side. It just did not happen.


Because Trump didn’t win, he thinks the rules should be “terminated” to comport with his delusion. . That is pure crap and you should recognize it as pure crap. That is not the way it works.

Trump is laying the foundation for a coup where the Constitution becomes meaningless, hollow words—chosen to be ignored at will depending on the needs of those in charge.
I wait for the right wingers to defend this as something stupid that Trump said, but didn’t really mean. Or do they envision a USA where the there is no rule of law, or Constitutional process, as Trump apparently does?

This man has put in writing his disdain for the Constitution and the rule of law, in total violation of his oath of office.
This cannot be rationalized, excused, or simply ignored. What is wrong with otherwise patriotic Americans?
