Trump Doesn't Know if He Has to Uphold the Constitution Because He's Not a Lawyer

[berg80]

It seems biased. Was he responding to the question, or was it more of a reflection of the very real constitutional gray areas that have emerged from decades of muddled immigration enforcement and judicial overreach? Another media edit to change the narrative, just like we saw with the Kamala interviews? Regardless, Trump is doing what he was elected to do ..

Read the article for goodness sake.

 

[Rawley]

He was asked if he has to uphold the constitution

His answer was “I don’t know, I have lawyers for that”

If that’s wrong, then explain how it’s wrong

Did you follow the conversation? She was asking about illegals and due process in the Constitution.

 

[berg80]

The fact that he says he is following the advice of the lawyers in the regime, and they aren't telling him to abide by the 5th A, should be a red flag those lawyers need to be fired. Pam should be the first to go.

The Dred Scott decision spelled this out quite clearly. Why don't liberals understand that?

 

[JimH52]

That is trump's answer when asked if he has to uphold the Constitution.

He doesn't know.

Does nobody but me see a problem here?

Trump, asked if he has to 'uphold the Constitution,' says, 'I don't know'

Trump said on NBC News’ “Meet the Press” that he’s following lawyers’ advice as he tries to execute rapid deportations, arguing that giving immigrants due process is time-consuming.

How can anyone defend a man who stood with his hand hovering over a Bible and swore that he would uphold the Constitution...saying "I don't know?" The man is either in serious mental decline or he is a blatant dictator wannabe...or both.

Who knows? Pam may be taking the place of Melania at night....uuugghhh...that would be a very nasty job. Hope she changes his diaper first.

Your lawyer needs to be fired. Illegals being deported do not have 5th Amendment rights.

 

[JimH52]

He pretty much lied on his oath to uphold the Constitution.

He is begging to be Impeached a THIRD TIME.

 

[BackAgain]

Correct. But WW was yapping about 5 and 14th amendment Due process. That is not the due process illegals get when they are being deported.

Agreed.

 

[Rawley]

Who knows? Pam may be taking the place of Melania at night....uuugghhh...that would be a very nasty job. Hope she changes his diaper first.

But you were comfortable with Biden banging his daughter, go figure.

 

[BackAgain]

He is begging to be Impeached a THIRD TIME.

No. You are.

Thankfully, it’s a dumb idea. And it has no shot.

Now, stfu, you moron.

 

[berg80]

The idea, heretofore unfathomable, that the prez only needs to enforce the parts of the Constitution he likes, is patently ludicrous.

 

[jc456]

The due process we graciously give illegals being deported is not in the Constitution.

Lesh can’t answer why other presidents didn’t! Notice? Crickets

Read the Dred Scott decision.

 

[frigidweirdo]

Remember, 15 years ago during the Tea Party movement the right would carry around little pocket Constitutions and dress up like colonial-era Americans. They don't even pretend to care about the Constitution anymore. Like Christianity, it's lost currency on the right. The entire movement is just Trump.

That's the problem with the US system, anyone can become President, they don't need to know anything, other than how to manipulate people.

 

[dudmuck]

The Dred Scott decision spelled this out quite clearly. Why don't liberals understand that?

you are referring to the decision that contributed to the civil war?
Blacks were permitted to become citizens at the 1870 naturalization act.

 

[Lesh]

The due process we graciously give illegals being deported is not in the Constitution.

WTF are you talking about?

The Constitution gives that right to “the people”. All persons. It makes no distinction as to citizenship

It's saying subhumans do not get access to our legal system.

 

[Lesh]

It's saying subhumans do not get access to our legal system.

Subhumans Lenny? You think black folks are subhuman?

You’ve never displayed your racism so openly before. Has Trump empowered you?

The poster going by the moniker Rawley is a typical far rightwing hyper-partisan idiot who knows nothing about nothing, least of all the US Constitution.

Trump's Administration has already admitted that everyone within US borders is legally entitled to due process

Sec. Rubio says all on U.S. soil entitled to due process as Trump admin reportedly deports citizens

Secretary of State Marco Rubio tells Meet the Press that all citizens and noncitizens in the U.S. are entitled to due process, amid concerns following the Trump administration’s deportation of three U.S. citizen children and their mothers.

To report otherwise, at this point, is to scream you're liar.
