It’s like these people (edit- republican voters) have never read a book in their lives.
By about age 12 I had a reasonable grasp of our nation’s checks and balances, a cornerstone of our democracy.
At a minimum you’d think a rabid conservative fanbase that claims to love the constitution would be aware of this, and possibly expect the politicians they voted for to uphold such core principles.
That would require Republicans and US Conservatives to have actual ethics and principles beyond making sure they create the most unwelcoming world possible for anyone not white, straight, male, cis, and Christian.
"Let’s dispel with this fiction that Barack Obama JD Vance doesn’t know what he’s doing,” the Florida senator I said. “He knows exactly what he’s doing. He’s trying to change this country.”
Thanks for letting me crib you, Marco Rubio, you fucking buffon, because yeah. JD Vance literally has a degree in this field so he knows unequivocally what the truth actually is. He knows exactly what he’s doing.
Unfortunately, simply reading the constitution without any knowledge of how to parse legal language or any background knowledge about major Supreme Court decisions will leave the average person more confused than informed.
So I don’t doubt that people read it, but there is a reason that law school isn’t simply reciting the constitution.
While the average voter may be ignorant… JD Vance absolutely knows better, he doesn’t get to hide behind claims of ignorance or confusion.

JD Vance has a law degree from Yale.

I’m not surprised Vance knows what he’s doing.
I’m surprised the people who voted for him don’t, especially given how often I see a Trump sticker paired with a “We the People” window tint.
They just have that sticker for show. I doubt a single one of them ever read the constitution.
