Draggingtree Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 The Federalist : Donald Trump Is The Next Barack ObamaThe difference between Donald Trump and Barack Obama amounts only to whatever difference may exist between each emperor’s set of cronies. By Angelo Codevilla FEBRUARY 29, 2016 The Obama years have brought America to the brink of transformation from constitutional republic into an empire ruled by secret deals promulgated by edicts. Civics classes used to teach: “Congress makes the laws, the president carries them out, judges decide controversies, and we citizens may be penalized only by a jury of our peers.” Nobody believes that anymore, because no part of it has been true for a long time. Barack Obama stopped pretending that it is. During the twentieth century’s second half, both parties and all branches of government made a mockery of the Constitution of 1789. Today’s effective constitution is: “The president can do whatever he wants so long as one-third of the Senate will sustain his vetoes and prevent his conviction upon impeachment.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
