Trump loyalist pushes ‘post-constitutional’ vision for second term

A battle-tested D.C. bureaucrat and self-described Christian nationalist is drawing up detailed plans for a sweeping expansion of presidential power in a second Trump administration. Russ Vought, who served as the former president’s budget chief, calls his political strategy for razing long-standing guardrails “radical constitutionalism.”

He has helped craft proposals for Donald Trump to deploy the military to quash civil unrest, seize more control over the Justice Department and assert the power to withhold congressional appropriations — and that’s just on Trump’s first day back in office.

 
“We are living in a post-Constitutional time,” Vought wrote in a seminal 2022 essay, which argued that the left has corrupted the nation’s laws and institutions. Last week, after a jury convicted Trump of falsifying business records, Vought tweeted: “Do not tell me that we are living under the Constitution.”

The Washington Post also said Hunter's laptop was Russian disinformation. They are not a reliable source.

They do not care an inch about the Constitution, unless they are whining about claims it was violated. The do not really understand what's in the Constitution or how it works.

They believe a President is a God for one thing.

No...you believe that others believe that a president is a God... we don't... Those posts are the funniest though... With the messiah and orange stuff and other nicknames...

Could you give us a link to the WAPO story? Did they claim it was Russian disinformation or did they report that American intelligence officials made that claim?
