Remember who your audience is. Today is not about yelling at Donald Trump. He does not care. He is who the Founding Fathers feared would someday come. He is why they built the Constitution on checks and balances.
It is The Legislative Branch you are speaking to.
It is the Duty of the Senate to Impeach a President who has broken his Oath of Office. It is not just Trump who has failed to follow the Constitution. He has committed Treason by declaring War on his own people.
Any member of Senate or Congress who does not seek Impeachment or supports a Traitor to the Constitution is also guilty of Treason.
Governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed. Our Founding Fathers have told us whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to abolish it.
So remind our Legislature- it is not Trump we are looking at now. We the people expect them to honor the constitution. We the people will hold them accountable.

I don’t want him impeached for a third useless time. I simply want his failing health to carry him off. Time for a clot.
