    The fact that the sales description lists the Bill of Rights separately from the US Constitution logically implies that “The US Constitution” isn’t meant to include its amendments in the context of the book’s contents.

    The writer of the headline wants us to assume that Trump cherry-picked the 13th and 19th amendments to be excluded, when that’s obviously not the case. The 11th through 27th Amendments were all left out.

      What? You are assuming what a statement wants you to do?

      It’s been interesting reading the back and forth all over this post but I gotta say, defending against something you did to yourself is pretty silly.
