Donald J. Trump clarified his call for the termination of the United States Constitution by indicating that he would abolish the entire document except for the Fifth Amendment.
“I haven’t read the Constitution, but, from what I’ve been told, most of it is a waste of paper, quite frankly,” he told the One America News Network. “The Fifth Amendment is the only part worth saving.”
Trump said that the Fifth Amendment was “maybe the most beautiful amendment ever written,” and noted that he had used it “many, many times.”
“When I left office, I took a lot of documents with me, but I had no interest in taking the Constitution,” he said. “If I could have cut the Fifth Amendment out of the Constitution and put it in my pocket, I would have done that, but the rest of it was written by a bunch of dummies. A bunch of dummies.”
Republican leaders were noticeably silent on the former President’s latest remarks, except for Representative Kevin McCarthy, who said, “Hunter Biden’s laptop.”

And you believe this, word for word??? Even though it appears on the New Yorker humor page??? Stooping to a new low. Sounds a little dingus to me.

This is what regular people call *satire. It's just a bit of fun MAGA. Savvy?
Although, this piece does seem to have given you a 'red arse' ... old Charisma Guts Donny has a salve for that.
*the use of humour, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues.
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.

It looks like when Trump is not in Mar-a-Lago he is residing in you head.

This is Herschel day, another of old Donny's hand picked stooges ... this one he financially abandoned weeks ago.
He's an orphan now ... unless he wins. Then look out! Live from Sleazer's Palace ... "My African-American!" old Donny

Sorry, Charlie. I recognize satire and humor sites when I see them. My comments were directed to you because of your extensive propensity to believe, endorse and share every hare-brained rumor or meme that floats around.
I see that you eventually caught on and tried to save face by your feeble attempt at sarcasm. Chalk up another fail to your extensive resume.
I see no reason to continue this dead issue discussion, but if you still find the need to save face with Thelma Lou Betty Liz remember that you will be shouting in a vacuum.

Obviously, I disagree with his politics, but find his Reports quite entertaining, kind of like the "Babylon Bee" of the left. Wit and satire seem to be a sparse commodity among the left, so it's refreshing to read one who's actually funny. Like Stephen Colbert used to be.

Change your diaper and go buy a sense of humor. You won't regret doing either one.
Quietly, do you think it's ... *a little odd ... that you're more POed about a bit of satire kicking old Donny's
proposed Constitution trashing than old Donny actually proposing the trashing the sacred document?
* 5th Ave shooting spree odd.

Herschel lost and is fated to remain forever one of old Donny's orphans.
"So that's no praise for Herschel from the old Sleazer at the Palace?" Lindsey Graham
"So sad." Lindsey Graham

Even you'll have to admit (on some level) that since old Donny's emergence, humour, irony, ridicule and hyperbole
ain't what they used to be. It's because of the shamelessness. The new MAGOPers can not be shamed.

I was going to reply to him, but you did a better job than I ever could have
Someone once said “Any publicity is good publicity”. Trump is certainly adept at dominating the news stream.

Trump's instincts are usually right. We shall see in comparison to the upcoming shady Constitution-wrecking practices of this lame-duck Congress.

Ta.
MAGA hysteria is still under diagnosed and is never a pretty sight.
