Stewart Claims Trump Constitution Grants Unprecedented Presidential Powers Enabling Corruption

What was said

"The US Constitution is broken. It's not fit for purpose. What we've discovered is that if you get a president like Trump, and if you enter a world of private sector, crypto, globalized growth, the US Constitution is no protection. In fact, the president can worm his way like a termite into every nook and cranny of it."

Former UK politician Rory Stewart argued on The Rest Is Politics that the US Constitution has become a vehicle for corruption rather than a safeguard against it. He specifically cited Supreme Court rulings allowing Trump to prosecute enemies, pardon cronies, and grant himself immunity as examples of constitutional failures. Stewart called on Americans to change the Constitution to prevent tyranny and corruption.
