The oath to the constitution is non negotiable: you swore it and are bound by it. So did Trump.
We all know that on Inauguration Day, Trump swore to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States of America.
Now he has repeatedly issued unconstitutional EOs, defied the Supreme Court and most recently refused to acknowledge that he is bound by that oath. Read his answers to Kristen Welker during the Sunday morning broadcast of Meet the Press:
Welker: “Don’t you need to uphold the Constitution of the United States as president?”
Trump: “I don’t know. I have to respond by saying, again, I have brilliant lawyers that work for me, and they are going to obviously follow what the Supreme Court said.”
The second exchange, as described by the WSJ, unfolded as follows:
Trump was asked whether noncitizens are entitled to due process, which the Fifth Amendment requires before any person within the U.S. may “be deprived of life, liberty, or property.”
“I don’t know. I’m not, I’m not a lawyer. I don’t know,” . . .
We have seen daily examples of Trump's contempt for the constitution and the rule of law.
The attempt to reign as King Trump by a multiply indicted felon who tried to overturn an election and assists our foes, betrays our allies, and shreds our legal rights and the laws of this nation at every turn is a betrayal.
It is your job to stop it.
Impeach him now.
