Twitter CEO Elon Musk blasted former President Trump’s call to terminate the Constitution over his unfounded claims of mass electoral fraud in the 2020 presidential election.
“The Constitution is greater than any President. End of story,” Musk wrote on Twitter, pinning the tweet to the top of his profile.
Trump on Saturday wrote on his social media platform, Truth Social, that the Constitution should be terminated over his unfounded fraud claims.
“A Massive Fraud of this type and magnitude allows for the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the Constitution. Our great ‘Founders’ did not want, and would not condone, False & Fraudulent Elections!” Trump wrote.
The post led to widespread condemnation from the White House, Democrats and some in the GOP.

Trump has now declared he wants to terminate the constitution to unilaterally restore himself to power. Can’t ask for a more textbook definition of an authoritarian coup. If Rs won’t say he’s unfit for power after that, why would anyone think they’d resist him doing all he says? https://t.co/kAKuUtQHNp

It's all culminating this week: that the GOP considers Herschel Walker qualified to serve in the US Senate and Donald Trump's call to overthrow the Constitution as "he says many things" demonstrates beyond a doubt that it no longer has a reason to exist.

Every elected official raises their hands and swears to “support & defend the Constitution.”
The Constitution has been threatened by this individual.
Will his followers support him or will they adhere to their oath & defend the Constitution? https://t.co/cb1gcluCY0
