To be fair, I don't know either. I mean he's supposed to, and he swore an oath to, but if nobody is going to enforce that then must he really? What happens if/when he doesn't?

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Oh he literally forgot the oath of the presidency? Sounds like a good reason to invoke the 25th amendment.
You just gotta love it that this shit stain is supported by constitution lovers
"lovers"
Trump probably had his fingers crossed while he took the oath.
He didn't bother putting his hand on the Bible. Not that I care, but you'd think his "omg christian patriot doggy mommy" followers would say something.
There's only one correct answer and that's not it...
WHY IS THIS SHIT ALLOWED! THIS MAN SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED IN ANY RESPONSIBLE POSITION! HE SHOULDN'T BE IN CHARGE OF A LEMONADE STAND MUCH LESS A COUNTRY! WHY DID AMERICA ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN! THE MAN DOESN'T WANT TO DO HIS JOB OF UPHOLDING THE CONSITUTION! THAT'S LIKE A DOCTOR SAYING THEY DON'T KNOW IF THEY HAVE TO ABIDE BY THE HIPPOCRATIC OATH! TRUMP AND ALL OF THE REPUBLICANS IN CONGRESS NEED TO BE TRIED FOR TREASON! WHY HAS THIS MADNESS GONE ON SO LONG!
When you say "Allowed" there is no one above him to stop him at this point besides the other branches of government.
Yes, I'm asking why the other branches of government are allowing this
Thank you for saying this for me.
I'm pretty sure this is a bot account
I dont even trust the voting system. There has been many attempt at manipulating the results. Maybe America didnt allow this.
Doesnt matter though. This guy is awful and dangerous as president.
You shouldn't, they stole the election, here are the receipts.

THERE IS NO ADULT WAITING IN THE WINGS TO SWOOP IN AND SAVE YOUR NATION! BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE! THE REASON NO ONE IS STOPPING THIS IS EVERYONE IS BUSY ASKING "WHY IS THIS SHIT ALLOWED!"!
What are you doing then? I see a lot of people chastising others for not doing anything while also not doing anything
I think the fact he said 'your nation' instead of 'our nation' should answer your question
I'm not American
A mob-led "American Constitutionalist Revolution of 2025" has a nice ring to it
At this point I’m just curious how long this will go on. What would have to tilt for a group of politicians to overhaul his ass and the r’s supporting him?
I believe it will continue until the politicians are scared of an angry mob kicking in their door.
"I don't think so" is what he meant
This what you get, no-vote cowards.
This is what you get for running two genocidaires.
This is what you get for running two genocidaires.
Ahhh there it is... Finally getting honest are we?
What do you mean? The Democrats ran horribly unpopular genocidal candidates and lost. Do you disagree?

I AGREE! The Founders had NO IDEA what the Future would be LIKE when they Wrote it!
-People who VIGOROUSLY DEFEND School Shooters because of the Second Amendment!
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.
-President Trump, just this year.
He treats it will all the seriousness that he treats his wedding vows.
You proud now MAGAts? Does this make you proud?
They don't care. All they care about is their in-group is strong and the out-group is punished. They're shitty people.

All I can do is laugh at this point. This regime is so buffoonish and so open with their intentions that I genuinely wonder how people fell for this shit and continue to believe it. Are we really this fucking dumb ?

That's because he can't spell it without looking at his phone
Get. Him Out!
"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."
This is the oath he had to make when he took office.

Pressed whether his administration is following the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution, which says no person "shall be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law," Trump said he wasn't sure.
"I don't know. It seems – it might say that, but if you're talking about that, then we'd have to have a million or 2 million or 3 million trials," he said. "We have thousands of people that are some murderers and some drug dealers and some of the worst people on Earth."
It might say that? Might? This isn't something that is debatable you hippopotamic dung heap. That's what it fucking says.
