Trump calls the Constitution "fake news":

There is no such thing as apostasy in regards to disagreeing with the interpretations of the Supremes.

Their interpretation is not dogma, and any president can hold whatever opinion he or she wants in regards to the Constitution.

Trump doesn't know. He never read the constitution.. He doesn't read, He doesn't listen and he never studied in school. He is basically dumb

Are you suggesting that only idiots criticize parts of the constitution? Or will you allow people the freedom to criticize the Constitution without denigration.

My point still stands, that it looks like criticisms of the constitution are treated like apostasy and blasphemy.


Trump’s Wharton Professor: “Trump Was the Dumbest Goddamn

The late Professor William T. Kelley, who taught marketing at Wharton for 31 years and had Trump in his classroom, said, “Donald Trump was the dumbest goddamn student I ever had,” in a conversation with his close friend Frank DiPrima. Kelley made the comment while Trump was already a public figure, but had not yet ventured into politics.

At cost? Are you joking?

That was the plan apparently, that means the cost would just be for expenses. It's not like the guy needs the money, if that was the case he would keep his salary.

Got any numbers yet on potential cost to taxpayers?

What does that have to do with the question I asked?

Please, the guy is all about money, money, money.
Hence the reason he wanted to hold the summit at his own resort in the first place. Hence the reason Mike Pence had to go miles out of his way to stay in Trump's resort in Ireland. And hence the reason he makes the US Air Force go out of their way to stay at his resort in Scotland.

Ouroboros

Coincidentia oppositorum
The Constitution of the United States of America is the supreme law of the United States. Empowered with the sovereign authority of the people by the framers and the consent of the legislatures of the states, it is the source of all government powers, and also provides important limitations on the government that protect the fundamental rights of United States citizens.
The Constitution | The White House

The supremacy act of the Constitution makes it the highest authority of the country.

Sedition:
Sedition is overt conduct, such as speech and organization, that tends toward insurrection against the established order. Sedition often includes subversion of a constitution and incitement of discontent towards, or resistance against established authority. Sedition may include any commotion, though not aimed at direct and open violence against the laws. Seditious words in writing are seditious libel. A seditionist is one who engages in or promotes the interest of sedition.

Donald Trump has many serious flaws, including incorrigible dishonesty, rampant narcissism, contempt for women and a fashion sense that makes him think that hairstyle of his is flattering. But nothing compares to his most prominent, crippling and incurable defect: He’s dimmer than a 5-watt bulb.

Secretary of State Rex Tillerson was reported to have called the president a “moron” — emphasizing that term with an adjective I can’t repeat here. Forced to hold a news conference to praise the president’s intelligence, Tillerson was too honest to deny what he had said.

The late William T. Kelley, who taught Trump at the University of Pennsylvania, said, “Donald Trump was the dumbest goddamn student I ever had.” Tony Schwartz, the ghostwriter of “The Art of the Deal,” says Trump had “a stunning level of superficial knowledge and plain ignorance.”

Trump’s feeble-mindedness is on daily view. When an Uzbek immigrant was arrested for allegedly driving a truck down a Manhattan bike path, killing eight people, the president responded in thunderously stupid ways. First, he tweeted that he had “just ordered Homeland Security to step up our already Extreme Vetting Program.” If you can step it up, why didn’t you do that before?

He fumed that the alleged killer wanted an Islamic State flag for his hospital room. Really? The guy reportedly killed eight people, and the flag is what steams you? Trump demanded the death penalty — opening the way for the suspect’s lawyers to argue that the president has made it impossible for him to get a fair trial.

Trump has learned nothing from his past blunders. As a candidate, he said Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl was a traitor who should be executed. Asked about the case as president, he doubled down: “I think people have heard my comments in the past.”

The military judge announced he would count Trump’s statement as “mitigating evidence” — which may be why he ended up giving Bergdahl no prison time. Not only was Trump’s remark unnecessary and inappropriate; it was self-defeating.

He’s just not bright enough to make connections between his conduct and its consequences. Trump’s travel ban has lost repeatedly in court because he has made clear he has an unconstitutional goal: shutting out Muslims because of their religion. If he had kept quiet, he might have gotten his way.

The evidence of his dimwittedness flows as continuously and voluminously as the Mississippi River. His tweets are studded with misspellings, random capitalizations and mystifying quotation marks.

He taps out tweets that flagrantly contradict what he tweeted when Barack Obama was president, making himself look ridiculous. When he holds forth on policy issues, it’s excruciatingly apparent he has no idea what he’s talking about.

Trump relies on a vocabulary the size of a second-grader’s. To combat opioid abuse among teens, he favors “telling them, ‘No good, really bad for you in every way.’ ” Those paper towels he tossed to a crowd in Puerto Rico were “very good towels.” He wanted to call the tax reform bill “the Cut Cut Cut Act.”

He pretends to be a master negotiator, but he has failed to get the Republican Congress to repeal Obamacare, enact protections for immigrants brought here illegally as children, and fund his border wall.

Trump tries to conceal his intellectual deficiency by insisting how smart he is. “I went to an Ivy League college,” he said last month. “I’m a very intelligent person.” He has to make such affirmations because all the evidence indicates his cranium contains an airless void.

I don’t mean to suggest his supporters are dumb. There are plenty of intelligent people who voted for him and plenty of stupid ones who didn’t. But the smart Trump supporters don’t hold his intellect in awe.

After Tillerson’s “moron” comment was reported, Trump said, “I guess we’ll have to compare IQ tests. And I can tell you who is going to win.”

I’m sure plenty of readers are now saying I’m the stupid one, with a brain far inferior to Trump’s. They may be right. So I put a challenge to him: We both take an IQ test, administered by an independent body, with the results to be made public.

This is a great chance to dazzle the world with his peerless mind. It’s a chance for him to humiliate someone in the “fake news media” with his towering intellect.

But I’m betting Trump will never submit to any process that would document his actual intelligence for the public to see. He’s dumb. But not that dumb.

Donald Trump's biggest flaw: He's not that bright

The presidency to him is nothing but a business and he is the CEO. Apparently this particular resort was loosing money. A lot of people take issue with the Constitution but nonetheless acknowledge its authority with respect. Apparently, Trump took the oath of office as meaningless necessity.
I recall soon after the 2016 election, conservative commentator David Frum predicting something along the lines of "Trump is going to use the Presidency to enrich himself and his family as much as he can".

Looks like he was pretty spot on.

In that sitting, I bet Trump spoke 2,000 words in probably 2 minutes... And while I'm sure that figure is wrong, the *point* is what Trump and myself are focusing on.

...The more you do, the higher the frequency of error. This is a natural fact.
We aren't talking about moms putting food on their family or poor kids doing as well as white kids. Trump said that something that objectively exists in the Constitution, something their is no denying, a part of the highest law of the land that he is sworn to uphold, and he called it "phony."

Until he clarifies himself, I'm not going to critique one word out of 25,000, and double down on it to claim he's attacking the constitution. That's just unfair considering he may have selected a wrong word in his speech.
It's quantity over quality, I'll admit, that gets him into trouble. But that's what high-energy people often tend to do.

OK. Let's add more..right to practice religion, (such as not allowing babies to be killed)

The laws approved by the Supreme Court do no force any person to have an abortion in violation of their religious beliefs. The Founding Fathers tried very hard to make it very difficult for religious people like you to impose your beliefs on other people.

right to free speech (as opposed to political correct hate crime baloney)..etc.

I suppose you support the right of people to say: "All ******s and queers should be hanged". Jesus would be proud.


The Trump lesson may be that not even a 'good' man could save the US in it's advanced depravity, which seems to be to the core.

Are you saying you thought that Donald Trump, who had an affair when his wife was pregnant, and cheated his contractors out of millions of dollars and lied to people who bought into his "Trump University" scam, was a good man who could save the US from its advanced depravity?

You really are naive.
