Trump calls for the termination of the Constitution - A poll based on TFG's musngs

[DemocratSinceBirth]

Former President Donald Trump called for the termination of the Constitution to overturn the 2020 election and reinstate him to power Saturday in a continuation of his election denialism and pushing of fringe conspiracy theories.

“Do you throw the Presidential Election Results of 2020 OUT and declare the RIGHTFUL WINNER, or do you have a NEW ELECTION? A Massive Fraud of this type and magnitude allows for the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the Constitution,” Trump wrote in a post on the social network Truth Social and accused “Big Tech” of working closely with Democrats. “Our great ‘Founders’ did not want, and would not condone, False & Fraudulent Elections!”

Based on TFG's musings what percentage of Republicans would support terminating the Constitution and with it the Bill of Rights and making Trump and his progeny leaders for life? A dictatorship.

Those millions of republicans want an authoritarian gov't but they mistakenly think they will be the few thousand elites actually in charge.

Those millions are useful tools for those who will actually be in charge.

One poster called it a 'new social feudalism age'.
-----------------------
Same/same for those who want our country to be Christian run.

When a theocracy takes over America, which church (Christian of course) will be in charge?
Will the others accept their rule?
Many Catholics/Protestants consider the other to be false Christians.
Would they accept Mormons as the rulers?
Westboro Baptist Church?
The new rulers will be political Christians rather than Christians of faith.

We have plenty of people who want to be the Christian Ayatollah of America.

8. Even nk has a constitution.....

It's the combined set of its national laws. There is always the kings, or emperors, orleaders, law.

No matter what it's called, it amounts to the same thing, but can mean very little in practice.

Even if he somehow took power, and abolished the constitution, he would still have laws he could run the country with. They would be punitive, vindictive, and aimed at retribution towards his enemies and genocide of people of color, but their would still be laws.

15. The Constitution is a compact between the states.

No Constitution, no compact, no republic.

18. Tossing out the Constitution also tosses out their sacred second amendment.

How long do they think an Emperor Rump would let them keep their precious, given the number of unhinged morons running around?

19. He's insane and so are many of them.

Some of them are waking up and this kind of rhetoric is helping. He's obsessed with it, he's not campaigning, he's lost his mind over losing.
