    It wouldn't exactly be out of place with his recent moves. But you're right, that's why I said he "allegedly" said that. We shall see what is confirmed.

    Live by the sword, die by the sword. This president* has stirred up hatred on both sides and it may just be his undoing.
    Suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress. But I digress....

    I predict you will be looking for Trump's "undoing" right up until the day you die.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.


    I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.

    Veritis, you seem overly concerned with my demise.

    Not at all. It is commentary on your poor prognostication skills.

    The stirring started long before that. It was pushed back by 9/11, but they quickly overcame that.
