When their policies shit all over it?
Minimum wage, eliminating entire sectors of the economy, freedom of association etc
What a large group of fucking liars!
 
Nobody knows what you’re talking about (that includes you).

Why do Republicans call the press (whose freedom is covered in the first amendment of the Constitution) the “enemy of the people”?
You dont understand because you are an idiot. And a liar.
Calling the press that isnt shitting on the constitution. Republicans do shit all over the constitution, though.

Because 90% of them are progressive partisan hacks with bylines?

Calling them names doesn't go against the Constitution. Get back to me when their offices are raided and they are deplatformed in a way non progressive speakers are deplatformed.

Because they have used that freedom to become an enemy of the people. Much of the press is no more than a Democratic Party surrogate.

OK. Please explain what article of the constitution has anything to say about the minimum wage? What sectors are you talking about and explain what the constitution has to say about it. How are Democrats going after the freedom of assembly? And lastly why specify Democrats? In this last few weeks the Trump administration has flat out said it would not allow the legislative branch to conduct oversight on the executive branch. Pretty sure the constitution has a thing or 2 to say about that. Congress refused to conduct its constitutional obligation when Obama tried to get Garland on the bench. I could go on but you get the idea.

It doesnt mention minimum wage. Thats precisely my point. So thanks for that!
I was referring to eliminating private insurance.
Freedom of association is always under attack with things such as public accommodation laws.

I agree. The whole duopoly is a bunch of bullshit.
I just find it humorous how dems keep screaming about the constitution lately when deep down they don't give 2 fucks.

Are you trying to contend that only stuff that is specified in the constitution can be made into laws? As to your freedom of association. I could just as easily argue that denying an individual access to a bathroom after he choose to identify himself as another gender is against freedom of association. I also don't see what article of the constitution has anything to say about health insurance and whether or not it should be private?

The constitution has nothing to say about a whole range of stuff it in no way impedes laws on that stuff being issued. Is your contention that laws should only be made on stuff explicitly named in the constitution? As to your bathroom example. I could just as easily argue that having gender specific bathrooms is an attack on the constitution. A

The constitution gives the fed gov a well defined set of enumerated powers. It even explicitly states everything else is left to the states.
Bathroom usage is a private property issue, not the fed gov. You have no right to others property. Freedom of association isnt about individuals restricting you. Its about the govt restricting you. or forcing you.

Yes and one of those well enumerated powers is the issuing of laws the population. Laws like you have to wear a seat belt. Laws like an employer has to provide a safe workplace. Or he can not give his employees less than a certain amount of money. And bathrooms in schools are public property. And yes freedom of association works both individually and publicly.

You have no idea what you are talking about.
The constitution gives congress the power to make laws within the realm of their enumerated powers
There is no federal seatbelt laws
Fed minimum wage is unconstitutional
There is no freedom of association between individuals. I cant restrict who someone does business with. Neither can the fed gov but they do it anyway.

Well. Seatbelt wasn't a good example maybe, but the rest stands. Either by regulatory agencies or laws. The federal minimum wage was deemed constitutional by the Supreme Court, the entity that is mandated by the constitution to make such rulings in 1940.Is the Federal Minimum Wage Unconstitutional?
So pray tell how do you uphold the claim that something is unconstitutional when the supreme court disagreed.?
No but individuals do have the right to choose their association. By the way I find it interesting that from your original premise of the OP you seem to not really capable of establishing that Democrats have really gone against the constitution. Nor are you capable of arguing against my position that Republicans can and have done so.
This is not to say the Democrats haven't done unconstitutional stuff, just that your examples aren't it.
 
It is Trump who is shitting on the Constitution by ignoring congressional oversight

Rules do not apply to him
 
Trump thinks he can flaunt the Constitution because he has stacked the Supreme Court in his favor


I doubt if even a conservative court will defend him

Too dangerous a precedent
