Your last sentence - yes, I agree, I sure hope so. Too many young people especially have no idea about Constitution. Also agreeing about the govt not knowing. I've watched Trump for a very long time, I'm certain he knows Constitution inside and out, he has ALWAYS been a very patriotic American. I remember back in 1980 he talked about America going downhill and was very sad about it. Several yrs later he expressed that sentiment again and said he might have to run for president some day but really didn't want to, politics is a very mean place and he has a great life is what he said. He has given up a lot to be president and try to straighten out America. His friends & his enemies both have said about him: "Never underestimate Trump. NEVER." 45 yrs of watching him and I've never seen him lose in the end. He might have but not at this point. He has studied deep state for decades.
Trump does NOT know the constitution. Being patriotic and knowing the constitution is 2 different things. If he was going to follow it he wouldn't be writing so many EO's and his first term would have turned out much better. I have watched and listened to Trump since he was a young man. I am aware of how he works and how he thinks. I've been here awhile...lol
Well, each elected representative, as well as all federal appointments, including military officers, take an oath to "support and defend the Constitution." This would seem to imply that if they were not up on what was in it at the time, they voluntarily took it upon themselves to find out what they were supporting. It would make a lot of sense to require all of them, just as one has to do to get a drivers license, to pass a written test before they could be finally confirmed in office.

You raised the point (conflating patriotism and constitutional knowledge) I was about to make earlier, but stayed my hand.
