You don’t get to democratically reject democracy. That is like the first grade class president candidate that promises free ice cream for everyone when they get in office and then they realize that is not in their power. The constitution is above the president and above a single election.

Like all other public institutions these things only matter insofar as they have buy-in from the public.

  • do you believe that the majority of Americans support what is happening?

    • The majority of the electorate voted for it and based on the polling data Americans don't think it's being taken far enough.

      If you can find a pool of people who don't support it and you truly believe it violates the constitution you should campaign for secession. That is ultimately where the power for the constitution comes from after al.
