Between the two, Trump has shown his governing politics to be far more faithful to the Constitution than Biden's long history of becoming more and more Progressive and whose present position will be dictated by the Democrat Party which has actually become the Progressive Party trending heavily toward socialism and is being supported by the Communist Party and leftist organizations and movements.

I have no doubt, absolutely none, that the Progressive party, given enough power and a little more time, will gut the Constitution with novel interpretations making it absolutely moot, totally irrelevant, and finish replacing it with it's dream of some form of an unhampered Administrative State--or maybe with a whole new Constitution, or none at all.

If you don't know what the American version of the "administrative state" is, and what is the Progressive project of making it our functioning form of government while rejecting the Constitution, the following two articles give a clear picture.

The first, https://ballotpedia.org/Administrative_state is a concise neutral explanation of what it is.

The second and more interesting one details the Progressive project of rejecting the Constitution and basically replacing its functional powers with a centralized administrative government: https://federalistforum.com/the-admi...ed-government/

I think Pete F and Spence, if they read the articles, will agree with the notion of an administrative state, and prefer it over the Constitution and its separation of powers doctrine.

Oh Butchie,
I could put footnotes and hyperlinks around any of my kooky theories...it don’t make them any less tin-foil-hatless.

Hell, there might be hope for all of us..look at where Scott Atlas is now. Some people actually put a “Dr.” in front of his name.

Don’t stop believing, Murica.

We are a nation in the middle of a moron sandwich.

Go ahead. And I will have the integrity to discuss them. That you or Pete F or Got Stripers or wdmso or Paul S refuse to discuss mine or my repeated request to discuss the ideological battle underlying this election says a ton about yall's integrity.

Pretty funny metaphor right there, Butchie.

I bet me, Pete, Wayne, Bob, and Paul sat at the lunch table that caught #^&#^&#^&#^& from all the IROC driving success stories from your high school. Now we’re some kind of elitist mob. I love it. Come roll some D&D dice with us some time...you’ll like it.

Is this an attempt at rational discussion? Oh, wait, I apologize. That was a foolish question. The answer is self evident.

Nope,
That was just a straight-up diss to all the guys who acted like #^&#^&#^&#^&s in high school, and now think they can get back on the #^&#^&#^&#^&-wagon with Caveman Politics.

If you weren’t one of those guys in high school, then I’m sure you understand.

If you don’t get it, then I understand.

Savvy, chum?

I didn't act like a #^&#^&#^&#^& in high school. My action was solely to get through it and get the hell out of there. I mostly hated school.
