The thing is federal judges are not the law, they are not lawmakers, and they are not obeying the law.
I do not wish to be ruled by unelected and unanswerable politically appointed lawyers.
And congress is total and complete failure, full to the brim with liars, cowards, snakes, schemers and plotters.
I have no respect or need for any of these people.
However, I do respect your very well reasoned post, and normally I would agree, but I may be at a point that lies beyond reason now.
Chris, I think we have a Constitution Crisis right now.
As you stated, the courts are out of control.
Congress is shirking it’s duty.
The SCOTUS may be on the verge of going rogue too. I don’t think it would do that, but it could.
What is the answer? Should the president become a dictator?
Even if Trump were Jesus (and I don’t say that out of disrespect for Jesus), he couldn’t remove SCOTUS Justices and appoint new new ones that would be seen as valid.
He couldn’t remove members of the House or Senate and replace them.
He couldn’t act outside the law. If he did, he would become by definition a person acting outside the law. He would be a rogue president as surely as Congress and the SCOTUS had become.
You can’t correct things, by taking illegal courses of action yourself. You must stay within the bounds of the U.S. Constitution.
If the SCOTUS blocks the president and Congress allows it, you have a federal government that is so badly broken that it would probably be time to call a Constitutional Convention of the States and hope for the best.
What other course of action would be an option?
The very United States would be on the verge of dissolution and utter chaos.
Trump must maintain a lawful stance. He cannot taint himself, or we would not have even one branch doing what it was supposed to.
Trump would have to remain the adult in the room. That would be vital.
Any course of action he tried to implement, must be seen as something that was in accordance with the U.S. Constitution, even if the Legislative and Judicial branches had gone rogue.
We must have a steady rock, a true unblemished champion at the helm. We the People, must be able to fall in behind him from a legal position.
If he went rogue, there wouldn’t be a pure Constitutional unblemished advocate left.
