Make the president adhere to Constitution

Message to Congress:

Get smart - be courageous. Do what has to be done for America, not what your party says you have to do.

Start with Trump's swearing in as president. "I will preserve, respect and protect the Constitution of the United States."

First Amendment "Freedom of Speech in support of a free press." Does he protect and respect the press?

Second Amendment: Trump interprets "right to bear arms" as a person to have a rifle. Again read it: It is to protect against a government uprising. (Impossible in this day and age.) Additionally if military weapons we have today (AK-47) the framers of the Second Amendment certainly would have worded it differently. He is not protecting the citizens of America.

Now the Fourteenth Amendment, he wants to sign an executive order to cancel it. Impossible - changing it requires an amendment.

Regarding responsibility of the pipe bombs to all his enemies, true he didn't do it. So by comparison, Hitler is absolved responsibility for the genocide carried out in Germany. As Voltaire said, "Those who can make you believe in absurdities, can make you commit atrocities."

Where are the checks and balance I've heard about all my life. Congress is like the three monkeys - can't hear, can't see, can't speak

Lastly, the reason for impeachment, abuse of power. The separation of mothers and children at the border takes the cake for stupidity. More Hitlerism ...

Don't repeat - impeach.
