Ok, does process matter? Does the Constitution matter? I think based on the responses we have seen this year, it is something that deserves discussion.
Does following the Constitution and trying to follow the Constitution matter any more? OR, is finding creative ways around it through Executive Orders or waiting for the Courts the new way if the Executive Branch determines the ends justifies the means?
Honest questions. Because we are now at a point where we have creative Executive Orders and Sec of State's saying they do not have to tell Congress about using the military if the mission is deemed so. Nevermind, Trump's leaking comments...
They are picking areas that no one wants to fight, such as Maduro, drug dealers, etc. to set precedent. Now, Trump is saying we can do this more. Is Cuba, Panama Canal, Greenland on the table? As Trump said, Who is going to stop us?
Is that what we want.
obviously, a liberal
I agree with Rand Paul.
"He cautioned that while the outcomethe end of a tyrannymight be celebrated, the mechanism used to achieve it empowers the "Unitary President."
This was done by Executive Order, not Congress. No one, that values freedom, is mourning Maduro. And there are a whole host of other targets that if removed we should rejoice. But the question still remains, what role does Congress have in this and is the Constitution outdated?
Because your response is perfect to sum up the issue, you seem to want the "Unitary President". If that is the case, we simply need to amend the Constitution rather than the circumventing.
