So he's promising to nullify the 14th amendment? Bold strategy
Conservatives really don't like any amendment passed the 2nd. And they absolutely hate the 13th, 14th, and 15th.
The conservatives on the supreme court have been chipping away at the 14th and 15th for the last decade, but gutting both is still one of their goals.
Coincidentally, they've functionally gutted the 4th through the Supreme Court, and are taking stabs at the 6th as well.
Past the second? They fucking hate the FIRST. Freedom of religion? Hell no. They'd impose Christianity on everyone if they had even the most remote opportunity.
No, no, no! They love the first! It's the freedom to make everyone follow their Christian nationalism! It's not designed to have freedom from religion you silly buffoon!
Obv </s> but just to be sure...
They want the First Amendment to only apply to straight, white, Christian men.
Of course, they want all rights to apply only to them and all restrictions to apply only to everyone else. It's why conservatives were very pro-gun control when black groups started marching while legally carrying guns. "We can't have 'those people' using the Second Amendment! It only applies to us!!!"
