The current state of the law would be sufficient, if enforced.

The law as it is, is not being enforced. That is the primary problem. The chief executive happens to also be the chief offender, and no other branch of government is willing to enforce the existing law.

The government as originally instituted presumed a nation of people who would first and foremost, self govern. Using that standard, few laws would be needed, because the underlying culture, and a belief in God’s retribution, were the main enforcers of generally understood morality.

We do not need any more laws. We need self government, beginning with each individual.
