Have you ever noticed that the radical left simultaneously hates the Constitution while also claiming to defend it? New York Times book critic Jennifer Szalai epitomizes this in the headline of her latest piece, “The Constitution is Sacred. Is It Also Dangerous?”
She begins her lengthy article accusing Trump of being a threat to the Constitution, and then argues that the Constitution itself is dangerous because “Trump owes his political ascent to the Constitution, making him a beneficiary of a document that is essentially antidemocratic and, in this day and age, increasingly dysfunctional.”
And from there, she cites books and scholars that argue for abolishing the Constitution. She cites Berkeley Law dean Erwin Chemerinsky’s latest book, “No Democracy Lasts Forever,” in which he argues that the Constitution’s rigidity endangers the country and even explores the possibility of secession, with red and blue states splitting up to form their own countries.
