I’m sort of used to fantasies coming from the Republican base, but this one is unusually unrealistic.  Does anyone have any clue how it could legally come to be?  Are those who promote or believe the theory advocating the overthrow of the constitution?

I don't know. Do you have a theory on how such a fantasy could come to be?
