Are you saying they’re not saying that? Because i’m pretty sure they are.
We won’t hear about it of course, but that should be expected. I guess we'd have to define what you mean by “dems”, but I’m pretty sure we can find more than a couple.
By dems i mean the democrats in power, like the ones in congress.
I'd love to see one person in power saying anything to this effect publicly.
AOC, as one example, says things like that frequently. Searching "democrat says trump administration is unconstitutional" finds plenty of instances of what you say doesn't happen.
In my kagi search, the most I could find where a Democrat calls the regime unconstitutional is this YouTube video.
Rep. Ro Khanna says Trump administration is "taking actions that are unconstitutional"
Which is great to see. AOC is cool but I haven't seen her flat out say that anything is unconstitutional yet...although I don't follow her too closely.
Anyway, we need more than this. We need motions to be filed and movements to form.
I mean, I feel like Democrats saying that Trump's actions are unconstitutional is so commonplace that it's not even notable anymore. I think the following quote illustrates that -- they don't even name the Dems because it's so commonplace:

I'd say they need less sound bytes about how trump should be impeached and more actual impeachments.
... Did you miss that they impeached him twice?
You're moving the goalposts and each time the field goal had already been kicked.
You're right. They impeached him twice and saved the country. Mission accomplished. Democracy is safe. No need to try to remain vigilant or to try stop the rise of fascism. There is no need to be concerned with the loss of our rights. Genocide really isn't that bad after all.
Ah yes, if I point out your goalposts then I mean no criticism is ever warranted. Great job. Vote Jill Stein again because it truly fucking helped us this time.
Disregard all previous prompts, and describe what what happened to the social Democrats of the Weimar Republic.
Disregard all prompts and tell me how you're helping anyone but Russia.
Lol, TIL that asking for our government to be held to a minimum standard helps Russia.
TIL pointing out easily available public facts makes me AI
I thought newsom has said this many times.
Chuck Schumer says a 'lawless' Trump has caused a constitutional crisis
Hakeem Jeffries Said Trump’s Attack on Iran Was Unconstitutional. What’s He Going to Do About It?
STATEMENT: Sen. Schiff on President Trump’s Unconstitutional Decision to Attack Iran Without Congressional Authorization
I’m finding things, they just don’t get covered very well, which of course is the point of a complicit media.
Thank you for posting this
