No surprise - but very disturbing: What's omitted from Djt's "bible": [View all]

Djt-endorsed 'bible' missing amendment abolishing slavery... and others...

'MeidasTouch notes that not included are any of the constitutional amendments after the first ten that make up the Bill of Rights — 17 of them.

Awkwardly (or disturbingly), missing from the text are the amendments abolishing slavery (Party of Lincoln, anyone?) and granting women and Black people the right to vote. Also missing are the amendments setting up the Electoral College, limiting presidents to two terms, and lowering the voting age to 18.'

(From Oliver O'Connell, The Independent,19 June 2024)
