To the editor: Two months into his tenure as president, Donald Trump’s administration has created a constitutional disaster (“The United States careens toward a constitutional crisis,” March 20). What does this imply? In authorized parlance I might say that it means the rule of regulation, in addition to constitutional freedoms and the separation of powers, is on the best way out.
That’s the authorized jargon. In plain language, it means we’re coming into right into a dictatorship. The regulation, the courts, the principles and doctrines which have preserved and promoted freedom, equality and adherence to confirmed truths are going out the window, and the protections to maintain them in place from Congress and the courts are disappearing. It’s apparent.
The present president calls judges who rule towards him “crooked” and advocates their impeachment. He tells us that judges are usually not elected, forgetting that they’re appointed to be insulated from political pressures, not topic to them. His administration assaults legal professionals and regulation corporations as a result of they characterize his political enemies. The best to authorized counsel is just not purported to be focused on attorneys who’re representing their professional shoppers.
Principally, the general public is witnessing the tip of freedom, equity, protections, thought-out insurance policies, well being, security, nationwide protection and monetary safety — and America because it was meant to be. Our nation will disappear, until a considerable counter wave of motion may be launched and may prevail. That’s what is at stake!
