At a minimum you’d think a rabid conservative fanbase that claims to love the constitution would be aware of this
Conservatives who say they love the Constitution are a bit like Prosperity Gospel preachers who say they love the Bible.
They don’t see this statement as an expression of ideology. They see it as a psychological hack to disarm their audience.
That would require Republicans and US Conservatives to have actual ethics and principles
The idea of a politician with principles used to be the punchline to a sitcom comedy routine or the climax of a utopian drama.
It’s dizzying to see people blindly trust what has always been a pool of con artists and hustlers, both along conservatives (who doge-edly insist Trump is the Real Deal) and liberals (who keep screaming “hypocrite!” at a party that flaunts its hypocrisy)

I’m talking primarily about the voters, which it’s becoming increasingly clear I need to specify.
