    I, Donald John Trump, do solemly swear that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States and will, to the best of my ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States. So help me God.

    For a guy who spent some time soliciting million-dollar donations from industry to bling up that ceremony, the climax of it doesn’t seem to have been as memorable as one might think.

      I think I’ve seen the issue as it says “to the best of my ability”, so he’s gambling on the proven fact that he has no ability in any way what-so-ever.

        he’s gambling on the fact that not a single fucking person with any semblance of power will call him out on his shit and get him any sort of consequences whatsoever.

    I think we have seen he does not have to… That does not mean he should not, but clearly he has not been.

      The electorate doesn’t care, media doesn’t care, the Supreme Court doesn’t care, the Senate doesn’t care… Yep.
