Like the reasoning behind the Declaration of Independance...

Tyranny..

“The history of the present (President of the United States) is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.

He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public

He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.

He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only.

SNIP

He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our People, and eat out their substance.

SNIP

He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended legislation:

SNIP

For imposing taxes on us without our Consent:

SNIP

For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:

SNIP

In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A (President), whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free People.”

(Exerpts from The Declaration of Independance, Philadelphia, PA, July 4, 1776)
