he’s been in office for less than two months and has at least two.

He’s had a lot more than two.

• The fact that he was allowed to run at all is a violation of the 14th amendment. The Supreme Court just “worked around” that by basically saying that the 14th amendment was unenforceable and can be disregarded.
• His refusal to divest himself from his businesses while he is President is a direct violation of the Emoluments Clause, which was again ruled as all-but unenforceable literally because nobody wanted to be bothered to enforce it because it would be “too complicated.”
• The arrest and detention of Mahmoud Khalil, and his plan to use this case as a pretext to quash other protests, is a violation of the First Amendment’s right to protest.
• The shipping of immigrants to El Salvador even if it wasn’t their country of origin is a violation of not only the Fifth Amendment rights to due process, but also the Eighth Amendment protections against cruel and unusual punishment.
• His attacks on media that covers him unfavorably is a direct violation of both freedom of speech and freedom of the press as guaranteed by the First Amendment.
• His funding cuts from both UPenn and Columbia in retaliation for policies he doesn’t like are both violations of those universities’ free speech rights, among other rights as well.

Then there’s the shilling of his personal products like his watches and memecoins that are also violations of the Emoluments clause, his repeated defiance of court orders demanding he re-open shuttered agencies, release aid, re-hire fired workers, etc., his threats to attack allies and annex their territory, his subtle threats to pull out of NATO and even the UN, etc. etc. etc. etc.

Its getting to the point where it’s not sarcasm or hyperbole to say that it would be quicker to list the Constitutional clauses he hasn’t violated. The man has already long since proven that when push comes to shove, nobody is really willing to actually defend the Constitution if it means putting in any effort beyond lip service. At this point, the Constitution is little more than a list of suggestions from some long-dead people on a really old piece of paper that can be safely ignored.

If you’re expecting “Constitutional Protections” to either save this country or even you as an individual, I hope you never find yourself in a position to realize how useless those protections really are when nobody is willing to enforce them. Remember, we are now at the stage where people are actively calling out the violations of the Constitution that are being committed and are being told “Yeah, so what? Not like you can do anything about it.”

Be real. You keyboard warriors aren’t gonna do a damn thing… push comes to shove you’ll run instead of fight.

I hope you and everyone will turn and fight when the time comes… it’s all I can hope for.

Online discussions may only lead to small changes in a few people’s lives, but small changes can add up. In an interdependent world, any subtle change can have wide-ranging consequences.
