Could just kick out customs

They're under the order of a man who isnt even the president.

Democracy is non negotiable and it gave Trump authority. Our right to vote gave him that

When he knowingly usurped powers of Congress(the supreme court stopped him from doing the exact same thing in 2019), to violate the constitution and harm American citizens, undermining our democracy, he was immediately stripped of his position and all authority.

Not by my opinion, but by the very logic of democracy itself. If he knowingly acts to undermine it(especially to harm American citizens)then he is undermining his own position which democracy granted him.

Democracy, the power of the people, the supreme power of the United States of America, is a law above all laws and a law before all US laws, it is not just the very foundation of our entire country, it is our soul as a nation.

And it is non negotiable.

We are finding it is quite negotiable.

But wait, who was stripped of their position and all constitutional authority?

[u/Outrageous-Orange007 → u/SharkSymphony]

Any servant of the people who dares to knowingly undermine it to harm American citizens.

There is one thing like I said thats above the constitution, democracy.

Democracy created it(at least everything after the initial draft, but even it which it can change) and facilitates it and in a way interprets it.

Democracy is what people got their brains splattered onto the fields over. An unspoken, unwritten, but solidified in stone, rule of this nation.

At any point the American people are justified to do whatever they mist to resist acts of usurpation. Oir founding fathers were pretty straight forward on that.

What I'm saying isn't a vote of the people, its the very logic of democracy itself. If that servant isnt stripped of power immediately then democracy doesn't exist.

People don't understand what this nation even is fundamentally.

You're talking in a bunch of generalities, but let's get down to specifics.

You said someone who usurped powers of Congress was stripped of their power and all constitutional authority. Of whom do you refer?

Because if you're talking about Trump, he was very much not stripped of power. He stepped down quietly after his pseudo-putsch went nowhere, in accordance with his term limit. And we let him do it. And then he was elected less than four years later and relieved of any consequences for his behavior. So that he had a green light to, you know, continue his quest to undermine democracy.
