Like a lot of my follow Kossacks and freedom-loving friends, since he-who-lost-the-popular-vote-tremendously has emerged as a viable political candidate, I have had a car-wreck curiosity and/or addiction to outrage that makes it hard for me to turn away from or ignore the daily Twitter dispatches of Sir-Tweet-a-Lot. Today, like most days, provided ample opportunity to be outraged, particularly as pertains to Mango Mussolini’s disparagement of an elected Federal judge and the system of checks and balances that create the balance of power that guarantees our freedom.
It has been suggested to Mr. Trump, time and again, that perhaps he should read the constitution; most famously by Gold Star father Khizr Khan during the Democratic National Convention.
Well, as I sat there, reading his Tweets while sighing deeply and rolling my eyes, it occurred to me: The only way to get Trump to read the constitution is by the only means likely to get his attention. That’s right: Tweet it to him.
So, I did. Line by line. From the preamble through Article VII: Ratification.
That’s right, I tweeted the entire Constitution of the United States to Donald Trump today.
I made sure to draw special attention to parts he might find particularly interesting or relevant.
Also:
I checked in with him from time to time, just to make sure he was holding up.
I reminded him what this was all about.
And made sure he focused on what was important.
Finally, we made it to the end.
