Too many checks and balances in US.
Won’t happen.
Congress has abdicated so much power to the executive branch that we don’t have checks and balances any more.
“Too many checks and balances in US.”
Not any more. We no longer have a Supreme Court to uphold the Constitution. We no longer have political parties willing to hold accountable their party’s members. We no longer have the will of the people to enforce the rule of law. We have become a land of freevies and everyone is in it for themselves.
Can you name a single time recently whereby an action was kept in check and changed? I can’t.
Nah...blackmail can and will always happen...we are not talking a violent overthrow....
Just a proverbial throw the fight or I’ll release the info.....
Checks and balances work when there are two opposing entities to an issue.
In our case, the judicial, ruling legislative, media and academia are all the same ilk.
What checks and balances? Rogue president stays for four years, cannot be removed as a matter of course like a comparable executive i.e. prime minister can be removed in parliamentary systems. Checks and balances? 67% opposed Obamacare. It was passed, signed. In Switzerland it would have been overturned by popular referendum that citizens can organize to overturn such monstrosities. Here it is approved by the highest court of the land. How many hundreds of executive orders has Obama issued and what are the checks on them? Checks on EPA? On FDA? Given where the country has been going, checks and balances are a fantasy, and some kind of archaic received wisdom.

The Founders thought different. That's why we have the 2nd amendment.
