Fucking LIAR...Trump insists he doesn't want to 'terminate' the Constitution

What a LIAR! Of course he is facing the heated backlash of his own words. Accusing the media of taking his own words out of context. Suck on it, Donnie! You wrote what you meant.

Former President Trump on Monday insisted he does not want to “terminate” the Constitution, responding to broad backlash after he said over the weekend its rules and laws should be disregarded so he can return to the White House.

Trump, in a pair of posts on Truth Social, responded to the fallout from his comments on Saturday that the 2020 election should be redone or he should be put back in office. The former president weighed in after internal Twitter communications showed company officials deciding to limit the spread of posts about allegations against Hunter Biden, President’s Biden’s son, in the closing weeks of the 2020 campaign.

“The Fake News is actually trying to convince the American People that I said I wanted to ‘terminate’ the Constitution. This is simply more DISINFORMATION & LIES, just like RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA, and all of their other HOAXES & SCAMS,” Trump wrote Monday afternoon, saying he meant that “steps must be immediately taken to RIGHT THE WRONG.”

The only way to stop certification of that election win by Joe Biden was to terminate the constitution. He thought as president he would have the right to do that. As a private citizen he certainly doesn’t

I remember an astute DU'er a few years back observing that one of Trump's PR tactics is to send up trial balloons. That pattern was seen on his lamebrained TV show back in the day. It was, essentially, "Let's try such-and-such, and see if ratings go up. If they do, then we'll do more of it."

I think the call to "terminate the Constitution" was one of those trial balloons. He floated the proposal, then sat back for a few days to gauge the response of the public and the response from his base. Had it gotten a good reaction, he'd be amplifying it. Instead, since it didn't go over well, he's now denying it.
