When even right wing flack Mark Thiessen says Trump has gone too far, you know that crazy Bard is one of the last to self-brainwash.
Quote: | 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.

"Guru's" image is not Trump's quote. Mr. Word Salad does not speak that plainly. Here is what Trump said:
“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...Our great ‘Founders’ did not want, and would not condone, False & Fraudulent Elections!” |

If just one of these assertions is correct it's a death penalty case.

Don't look now, global citizens, but your reproductive rights may soon be decided in the kind of conference going on right now .. which only aims to take away more of the human existence as we knew it ...
And for those of you still paying attention to the Globalist takeover (including those of you who stubbornly deny it) .. try actually reading it. This the WHO's second major official power grab attempt (soon to succeed in the USA if we all continue to roll over like the little one in the bed), and it is going on right NOW!

I think the tags associated with the "article" cited by marmalade says it all:
"Tags: badhealth, badmedicine, conspiracy, COVID, deception, deep state, freedom, genocide, health freedom, insanity, Liberty, national security, national sovereignty, pandemic, pandemic treaty, WHO, World Health Organization"

Give it up, LIBTARDS!
The defenders of medical freedom are going to kick your pathetic whiny asses back into your libtarded caves.
Sorry, too busy lately to make a picture worth 1000 words, but I will soon enough! |
