And then perform a eulogy for it?On Saturday, Trump used his own social media platform, Truth Social, to say: “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 also said an “unprecedented fraud requires an unprecedented cure”.
He was writing after Musk claimed he would show that Twitter was guilty of “free speech suppression” by releasing evidence of how the platform responded to requests from campaigns in the 2020 election.

On Saturday, Brian Schatz, a Democratic US senator from Hawaii, pointed to such hard political reality, saying: “Trump just called for the suspension of the constitution and it is the final straw for zero Republicans, especially the ones who call themselves ‘constitutional conservatives’.”

Not long before Trump said the constitution should be terminated, [Kevin] McCarthy said that when his party took control in January, it would demonstrate its constitutionalist bona fides by reading “every single word” of the hallowed document on the floor of the House.

You want a dictator? Vote for Trump.
He's wrong, of course. Many, many conservatives can and do agree with Trump whatever he calls for. And maybe John Bolton shouldn't have withheld all he knew to sell his book after he left the Trump administration.John Bolton, George W Bush’s UN ambassador who became Trump’s third national security adviser, said: “No American conservative can agree with Donald Trump’s call to suspend the constitution because of the results of the 2020 election. And all real conservatives must oppose his 2024 campaign for president.”
...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
