The Nation's Elie Mystal doubled down on his previous claim that the U.S. Constitution was 'not good' and 'actually trash' during an interview with Salon.
"The veneration that this country has for the Constitution is simply weird. It's crazy. It's not what other countries do for their written documents," Mystal said."We act like this thing was etched in stone by the finger of God, when actually it was hotly contested and debated, scrawled out over a couple of weeks in the summer in Philadelphia in 1787, with a bunch of rich, white politicians making deals with each other.
"The thought that this document, made by one class of people, represents the best we can do in America is just ludicrous," Mystal claimed."Of course it's not very good. You only let one kind of person write it."
