Article II, Section 1, Clause 8:
Before he enter on the Execution of his Office, he shall take the following Oath or Affirmation:– I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.
that just means he needs to keep the physical piece of paper safe under glass, right? /s
That’s why he wanted it moved to his office! He couldn’t let Nicholas Cage steal it!!
By the time his reign is over, I half expect he’ll publicly set fire to the constitution and people will cheer
Didn’t trump legally argue during his first term that he doesn’t have to “uphold” the constitution because the specific word “uphold” was not in the oath?
I believe last time this same fucking topic came around, the word under contention was “defend”. Does the word uphold mean he has to defend the constitution?
But literally none of those verbs are “uphold”!
His ability is what’s missing.
Literally his main job.
Servicemembers must feel so proud to be serving with him as their boss…
Can’t do a bad job if you don’t even know what the job is! /s
That’s literally the job of the president! It’s in the fucking oath! It’s like asking if doctors are obligated to heal the sick and injured! Ah fuck, MAGA probably thinks that’s up for debate too!
