Jacksonville Florida ~ echo to put checks on Donald Trump

Our institutions must keep Donald Trump in check ~ checks and balances in the Constitution

The Florida Times-Union ~ 

jacksonville.com: Protect Robert Mueller

The framers of the Constitution designed a system that uses separation of powers, and checks and balances to protect us from abuses of power by our leaders. 

Are we a society based on the rule of men or a society based on the rule of law?

If President Donald Trump fires special counsel Robert Mueller, it will be up to the Congress to check him. If past indications hold true, Congress will do nothing.

The country will then have to wait until November to have a chance to vote in a Congress willing to check the power of this would-be dictator.

But between now and November, how much more chaos and damage can Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin inflict on our country?

I fear the worst.
