The vice president told a crowd of roughly 20,000 in Dallas that former President Donald J. Trump had said he would terminate the Constitution in a second term.

“Consider: Donald Trump has openly vowed if re-elected he’ll be a dictator on day one, that he will weaponize the Department of Justice against his political enemies, round up peaceful protesters and throw them out of our country and even, and even and I quote, ‘terminate’ the United States Constitution,” Ms. Harris said.

    Hillary undermined his whole presidency. Al Gore tried to use law to win election.

    The attack on the Capitol was part of a wider plan orchestrated by Trump and his backers.

    Conspiracy theory…

      Hillary undermined his whole presidency.

      Yes, the fact that Russia ran a coordinated disinformation campaign that favored Trump does undermine his legitimacy a bit, but let’s not miss the forest for the trees. The fact that Trump lost the popular vote in 2016 and lost the election entirely in 2020 is more significant.

      Al Gore tried to use law to win election.

      61,000 ballots were not counted by mistake. Gore used the law to try and have them counted and the conservative supreme court interfered for political reasons. Gore was in the right.

      Conspiracy theory

      The amount of evidence supporting this theory rivals the theory of gravity.
