President Trump said he was uncertain whether he was duty bound to uphold the Constitution, saying in a television interview aired Sunday that was a question better posed to his lawyers

So where was he at noon EST on January 20th of this year? Too hard to remember for him? Seems there were some words spoken by him that day about protecting and defending a particular document.
Guess he slept through the part of the swearing in ceremony where he promised to uphold and defend the constitution like it was the funeral for a pope.
“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) 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.”
Stacking up more reasons for his eventual impeachment - 2026? Thicker stack than the Bible he chose not to put his hand on inauguration day seemingly with indifference/disdain. Revealing truth about Trump, for all to see, and providing ovewhelming preponderance of evidence for impeachment in 2026?
I guess he doesn’t care since he took the oath without a Bible, while Melania just stood there holding not one, but TWO Bibles. He knew he was going to use the Constitution as toilet paper. How many more alarm bells do we need before the GOP finally does something about this clown?
This country is in a stressful situation with this crazy manic in office he’s not working for we the people or our country he’s just in the office to destroy our country and the rules of law ✌️🥰 WAKES THE HELL UP PEOPLE!
Trump said he didn’t know if he has to uphold the Constitution. That’s not just ignorance—it’s dictatorship energy. Just like Hitler, he pushes lies, blames minorities, and undermines democracy. The warning signs aren’t subtle. They’re screaming.
Trump is no different than Hitler: fearmongering, racism, lies, and blaming the vulnerable. He attacked truth, glorified himself, and tried to dismantle democracy. If you’re still defending him, you’re ignoring history’s loudest warnings.
So... he doesn't remember that he put his tiny hand over a bible (doubt he touched it) and swore and oath to just that? Sounds like the dementia is a real issue.
Functionally illiterate and demented asshole cannot remember the oath of office he took a mere 2.5 months ago! Please, tell us again how Joe Biden was so senile!
DumbDonnie is senile, stupid, and a flaming asshole, but...he swears he loves the jeezus! That's apparently ALL you need in the USA.
This section of the Constitution places the responsibility on the President to "take care that the laws be faithfully executed," which includes upholding the Constitution.
The oath of office, taken by the President before entering office, explicitly states that the President 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".
Someone remind me, which candidate did the Wall Street Journal support in 2024? Did they say Trump did not have the attention span necessary to mount a coup? That Trump could be good for the economy? And that Kamala Harris was “unprepared for a world on fire?” Why yes, they did.
This is unconscionable. He and his cabinet and all followers in our Government need to be REMOVED immediately! Charged with Crimes to Humanity and put in prison for life.
WTHF! I know this time he did not put his hand on the Bible when he took the Oath, but apparently he didn't pay attenntion to what the Oath says either! My GOD how ignorant, delusional, and uneducated can he be?
Workers: It’s time to fight back. Soaring #prices, falling #wages, and deeper billionaire rule. But the crisis goes beyond any one politician. We need a new system—built by #workers, led by workers, international in scope, democratic in structure, and rooted in power at the point of production.
I was there. I saw Jeffery lying in a pool of blood. He lived in the same dorm I did. The National Guard troops that killed him should have ended up in prison.
A President is supposed to know the Constitution and not violate it; passing the buck to his lawyers is totally stupid. It is the president's duty to know and uphold the Constitution.
If he cannot answer "YES" when asked if he must uphold the Constitution, then he needs to be impeached and thrown out of office by the scruff of his neck. Outrageous! Insane!
Add to that story why are the press asking stupid ass questions that lead Trump to do exactly what they're asking example are you going to use the military to acquire Greenland.
Squirrels and Trump's brain yeah we should be doing that we should be using the military!
This is by far, the most ignorant man to hold the office... It isn't even a matter of speaking incorrectly on this, everyone knows the right answer. If he doesn't, he needs to be removed. If he misspoke, he needs to be removed.

His constitutional oath is meaningless.
😡 Failure to adhere to the Constitution means the President is taking his own decisions at our expense.
Btw, you hold some blame here wsj.

…and on a Bible
Something about "will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."
To paraphrase Mary McCarthy: “Every word he says is a lie, including ‘and’ and ‘the.’ ”
years
of THIS?
You would think that Republican politicians would have enough self preservation instincts to not allow one person to have it all. 🤷🏻♂️
And they want to kill us

No criminality for him!
Isn’t that the exact oath he took?
Rule 1: you’re never in a cult.
Rule 2: the cult will forgive any sin, except the sin of leaving.
Rule 3: even if he did it, that doesn’t mean he’s guilty.

1. He’s not smart enough to know what high school students know
2. He’s evil enough to deny the obvious
3. He has cognitive issues and can’t recall his oath of office
4. All of the above.
