This is why Article V was put into the Constitution. They knew power would start to concentrate in the District of Criminals as the busybodies played the game of accumulating power. The belief that utopia is only one more law away shimmers before them even if it is only a mirage. The idea of simply maintaining the rule of law without tinkering is foreign to them.
This is why the ultimate power was given to the states thru Article V to strip away all that power in one bold stroke. It's like a revolution without having to shoot anybody!
Article V wont work anymore these vile creature will hijack it!! Trump has the power to transfer whole department of government across the country and bust the whole damn DC SWAMP up!! This would also do away with K-Street lobbyists swarming the place!!
