Jefferson did not write the U.S. Constitution. At the time of its writing, he was in Paris trying to get friends for the revolutionary movement. As for the colonist, you do not specify which colonist you are asking about.

How did the president violate the constitution by making Louisiana purchase?

It was violated because it did not say anywhere in the Constitution that the president could buy or sell land, But after much consideration he did make the settlement.

Supporters of this action however argue that Jefferson was acting as a treaty with France and Spain in the purchase and therefore it was constitutional.
