As party leaders remained silent, a few Republicans on Sunday rejected Donald Trump's extraordinary suggestion for 'termination' of the U.S. Constitution and his installation as president.
to supporters regarding his false claims of voter fraud:"Do you throw the Presidential Election Results of 2020 OUT and declare the RIGHTFUL WINNER, or do you have a NEW ELECTION?"
He added:"A Massive Fraud of this type and magnitude allows for the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the Constitution." Lesser-known congressional Republicans criticized Trump to varying degrees on the Sunday interview shows, reflecting the discomfort many GOP members feel about the former president and future candidate.
Rep. Dave Joyce, R-Ohio, who chairs a more moderate faction called the Republican Governance Group, told ABC's"This Week" he doesn't think Trump will be nominated again, and he couldn't do anything to the Constitution in any event. "Well, you know, he says a lot of things," Joyce said."That doesn’t mean that it’s ever going to happen. So you’ve got to accept exact fact from fantasy."Rep. Mike Turner, R-Ohio, the top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, said on CBS'"Face The Nation" that Trump's comments are disqualifying for any presidential contender.
