He disqualified himself today [View all]

by saying that he doesn't know if he has to uphold the constitution of the United States. That's the headline. If he doesn't know that, that means he doesn't feel he has to do it. Our democracy is in danger. And if ANYONE ELSE said that they would be out.

I know there's a lot of stupidity crammed into one interview, such as "eleven year old baby girls" and other babbling nonsense, but let's not get distracted.

Media, why isn't this the banner headline? He babbles nonsense every day, but this is the constitution we are talking about and he won't say he'll uphold it. WAKE UP!! Or are you still too busy beating yourselves up over not being hard enough on Joe Biden?
