It’s like these people (edit- republican voters) have never read a book in their lives.
By about age 12 I had a reasonable grasp of our nation’s checks and balances, a cornerstone of our democracy.
At a minimum you’d think a rabid conservative fanbase that claims to love the constitution would be aware of this, and possibly expect the politicians they voted for to uphold such core principles.
That would require Republicans and US Conservatives to have actual ethics and principles beyond making sure they create the most unwelcoming world possible for anyone not white, straight, male, cis, and Christian.

JD Vance has a law degree from Yale.
"Let’s dispel with this fiction that
Barack ObamaJD Vance doesn’t know what he’s doing,”the Florida senatorI said. “He knows exactly what he’s doing. He’s trying to change this country.”Thanks for letting me crib you, Marco Rubio, you fucking buffon, because yeah. JD Vance literally has a degree in this field so he knows unequivocally what the truth actually is. He knows exactly what he’s doing.

Vance then attended Yale Law School, where he was a member of The Yale Law Journal
as Vance was about to graduate from Yale with a Juris Doctor degree.
I’m not surprised Vance knows what he’s doing.
I’m surprised the people who voted for him don’t, especially given how often I see a Trump sticker paired with a “We the People” window tint.
Exactly. He should be disbarred in Ohio.

Conservatives who say they love the Constitution are a bit like Prosperity Gospel preachers who say they love the Bible.
They don’t see this statement as an expression of ideology. They see it as a psychological hack to disarm their audience.

The idea of a politician with principles used to be the punchline to a sitcom comedy routine or the climax of a utopian drama.
It’s dizzying to see people blindly trust what has always been a pool of con artists and hustlers, both along conservatives (who doge-edly insist Trump is the Real Deal) and liberals (who keep screaming “hypocrite!” at a party that flaunts its hypocrisy)

I’m talking primarily about the voters, which it’s becoming increasingly clear I need to specify.
Just like the Bible, they love the idea of the Constitution, but they haven’t actually read it.
They have someone else interpret it for them, so they don’t have to think.
Oh, they know exactly what they’re doing. They are attempting (and apparently succeeding) to bulldoze their way through an administrative coup.
So a small government means a king?
Yeah don’t you remember the
31 branches of government?Branches are too big, the one orange leaf of government
Does that mean the leaf will fall off the tree soon?
What could be smaller than just 1 person?
Just a decapitated head?
Correct. Conservativism comes from a means of fanboying for the monarchy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservatism
did you drop a “them”?
Wait, different circumstances have different laws? Tell me more!
Would a traffic warden tell a surgeon how to operate? Would a traffic warden tell a footballer how to kick? The how come a traffic warden can tell me where I can park my car?
What a woke perspective.
Oh f*ck indeed! 🫣
Not well. I say you nuke the site from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.
Wait. Isn’t there military side of court that does literary this? And what’s more, it has access to heavier penalties because military can be more heinous?
Vance, being a lawyer, knows which words have meaning.
That’s why he wrote ‘tell’ ‘command’ and ‘control’ instead of ‘rules’ ‘orders’ or ‘directs’.
