This is not the US constitution; it used to be, but Article I, part of section 8, & all of sections 9 & 10 have been removed

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Because a plurality of voters wanted it to happen.
Except for the Musk/Trump voter fraud.
And the Constitution has ways for it to be amended. There were no votes on that.
Idgaf if its the official process or not, every single Trump voter should be told this is what they voted for. They should all feel responsibility for everything that happens, start to finish. They did this. They asked for this. They voted for this.
If fascists didn't make up the (near-) majority of politically active citizens like you're insinuating, then maybe your institutions wouldn't have immediately crumpled like wet paper.
The rule of law is literally dead in the US. Trump's team has repeatedly brazenly broken the constitution and showed that no-one is willing to stop him. It literally couldn't matter any less what the constitution says, because the opposition is too chickenshit to do even the bare minimum to defend it, because there is no meaningful popular support for active pro-democratic action in the US and that's a hard fact.
Overwhelming popular apathy is Putin and Xinping's key to power, and Americans are even worse because these inbred morons really unironically thought that the second amendment was meant to prevent tyranny.
