Imagine trying to play a game where you don’t know the rules. Not only would it be frustrating trying to learn as you go, but without a written set of rules, you would have no idea if the other players were cheating or not. Now imagine not that you’re playing a game, but running a country, and you never read the rules. That is the state we find governments in America today. The Constitution is the supreme law of the land, yet it is not taught in law schools, not in colleges, and definitely not in most high schools. So how can those in government leadership roles run a country when they don’t know the rules that were established? And since those we elect to office are working for us, how do we know if they are doing a good job if we don’t even know what the job is? What happens when people are governed without any rules in place?
We then cease to be a republic and become an oligarchy. In fact, the only difference between America today and the Soviet Union or Communist China is we elect our dictators rather than having them appointed over us. Before you start pointing fingers at others, realize that we are in this mess because the American people cannot be bothered to read the supreme law of the land, much less hold those we elect accountable to their oaths of office to support it. In fact, recent studies show that the American people support many of the illegal actions being taken in their name. So who is to blame, the politicians who are breaking the law or the people who hire them to do it?
Yeah well, I don’t believe we actually elected our dictator; but I guess we are already forgetting that Mr. Engel.
First, Joe Biden is not the only dictator the American people have elected. Mayor De’Blasio and Governors Cuomo, Newsome, and Whitmer for example. While we’re at it, you can add Governors Noem, Lee, and DeSantis to that list since all of them have issued orders and edicts that far exceed their legal powers.
Second, While there has been plenty of evidence malfeasance in the 2020 election, I have not seen any proof that recounts that eliminate the invalid ballots would have changed the outcome. And even if we remove the Presidential Electors from the five states who illegally appointed them, Biden would still have one the election by one electoral vote. Either way, somewhere around 50% of the people who voted, did so for Biden.
Lastly, while President Trump did not go as far as President Biden has, there were plenty of examples of him “ruling” by executive orders that far exceed his legal authority. So I stand behind my statement, the American people elect their dictators.
