For example, can you please direct me and/or other readers to the constitutional provision(s) that states cannot secede from the union? Likewise, if a fail-safe process like impeachment was included under the general assumption that both the executive and legislative branches would be held my moral people invested in the rule of law, continuity and general peace, what should be the counter-measure if those assumptions become null & void?
If anyone cares to review some of my prior comments, I frequently allude to Lincoln and the prescriptive actions he undertook during those times. Trump has long established precedent on his side to declare certain actions a fundamental threat to the national security of the union. If prog's wish to weaponize long recognized standards of decency and behavior, then Trump not only has a right, but an obligation, to declare such measures an existential threat.
I’m not interested in speculating about what elected officials might do in violation of their oaths to defend the Constitution. I get the idea that a lot of people with a variety of political perspectives dream of getting the Constitution out of the way of achieving their goals, but I am not one of them.
