Could you say specifically what in his quote makes you think he's acting as if the US Constitution is a guideline? I'm guessing he knows the first amendment and the law and it seems unlikely that he would actually verbally state that the government should actively violate the constitution.

Remember, the US has powers it doesn't exercise that allow it to limit the freedom of americans within a constitutional context. And it also has the ability to message to people in ways that cast doubt on things it does not want people to believe.
