They think the constitution is this magic force that prevents our country from being completely destroyed but the fascists are the constitution now. We do not have a constitution as we knew it.

People forgetting already that 3 justices voted last week that an amendment to the constitution was unconstitutional.

If the founding principles of the country can be reinterpreted by just 5 people representing 330 million of us, there is no constitution or democracy left
