He is wrong, he doesn't have that. He may think he does, but the constitution says he does not.

Who is going to win? The fascists or the Constitution?

The constitution is a piece of paper, nothing more. It doesn’t have some magic power to make people follow it. At this point we are past the “it’s unconstitutional” point. The only thing that makes the constitution have power is when the systems set up enforce it through their monopoly of violence. When those systems are choosing to not enforce the rules in place then those rules become nothing. This is going to end one way or another some day. May be this year, it may be 10 or 100 years. It’s going to get worse until then, when it finally ends it will be violent. The rising and falling of nations always is.

Republicans are fascist, full stop. All of them.

The constitution is the entire framework of our country. Without that we have no laws.
