I look at it this way. The Constitution and our way of government was our social contract. It has been broken. When will the people put it back? Only when they feel the pain of doing without it.

You said — “I look at it this way. The Constitution and our way of government was our social contract. It has been broken. When will the people put it back? Only when they feel the pain of doing without it.”

I see nothing “legal’ that says the Constitution, as the “law” is “broken”. It’s still just as valid and just as binding as it ever was.

Just because people couldn’t prove a “guilty party” — guilty — doesn’t mean the law is not valid. This sort of thing happens in courts all the time, and the “law” still stands and is still enforced.

You have a defeatist attitude to say that it’s been broken...
