    And I bet “Zelensky amends Ukraine’s constitution during wartime” would make similar headlines.

    There’s fair criticism to be made of Zelensky, I’m sure. However, not holding an election during wartime, which is backed by the constitution and most Ukrainians, is not one of them.

      Not really criticizing him. My criticism is the weird constitution worship used as non-argument that simply begs the question.

              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.
