They aren’t. But people treat them like they are. I do care about people using constitutions as if they were moral documents. I’d be just as annoyed if someone used a constitution to defend something like freedom of press or freedom of speech. I don’t care about what the particular issue is: its the citing constitutions like they prescribes perfect morals that I care about.
The whole way a country works is through written documents everyone adheres to. It is, by nature, difficult to make changes to those documents.
You can’t always just go with what gives you the warm and fuzzies in ideal democracy land where voting happens instantly and doesn’t risk your voting population being hit with a cruise missile.
Not really criticizing him. My criticism is the weird constitution worship used as non-argument that simply begs the question.

The people are the foundation of a country. Religious documents are just excuses.

Its fine for it to be hard to change. My issue is people treating them as if they perfect moral documents in arguments.
