My Political Petpeeve

I don’t understand how lawyers turned politician always look for loopholes in the Constitution to suit their political objectives. Obama made a statement to the effect that unless it is prohibited by the Constitution I can do it (loosely paraphrased) – DACA.

Congress has known that immigration laws are problematic and they have the power to correct or change the affected parts or the law entirely, yet they hem and they haw over what is wrong but fail to make any substantial changes. It is easier to blow smoke about Trump’s wall than it is to remain silent when it comes to Biden’s open border policies. And to think that Obama and Biden came out of that same Congress mentality thinking only they had the answer. Trump had been a political outsider and therefore couldn’t possibly have known anything about domestic or foreign policy.

Recently New Mexico Governor Gresham stated that the Constitution wasn’t absolute as she invoked a medical emergency due to guns and suspended the 2nd Amendment for 2 counties in her state. It’s clear that her unconstitutional actions will harm, not help in the war on gun violence. Maybe she should find a way to lock up lawbreaking gang members, robbers, murders or those violating actual gun laws?

I’m not a rocket scientist, but it doesn’t take one to see that criminals with guns kill citizens without guns 100% of the time.

Until voters begin actually thinking and repeal bad politicians at the ballot box nothing will ever change – for the better. – RTM
