At what point will you do something about trump’s power grab?

To: Sen. Hawley, Sen. Schmitt, Rep. Alford

From: A verified voter in Blue Springs, MO

March 31

Stop him now. Where is the line you’re not willing to cross? At what point are you going to stop pulling the party line? He’s threatening Canada, Greenland, Panama, and now Iran. These are sovereign nations with more than enough military to kill thousands, if not MILLIONS of Americans. He’s using Tarriffs to attempt this goal. He’s threatening countries, who have been our allies for decades with military action. He’s ruined relations to the point that the US may never recover, we certainly won’t be at the head of any leadership. He’s been on news stations talking about how he could get a third term and how he’s not joking about it. Even floating the idea that Vance could run, win, and then pass the baton back. He’s pulling American citizens off the street and sending them to labor camps, as young as 14 years old because they’re brown, so they must be criminals. Maybe they are, maybe they aren’t, but we don’t know that because he ignored due process and the orders of a judge. Even criminals are given due process by our own Constitution. All men are endowed with unalienable rights. You know what that means, it means they can’t be taken away. Speaking of ignoring a judge, he’s actively targeting the judicial checks and balances. Whether it’s turning his supporters on judges that have ruled against him, suing to have their powers removed, or declaring he makes the laws, the end result is the same. He’s trying to removed the last barrier he has to total power. He’s ignoring the First Amendment and going after schools who allow protests, and funding for students. He’s arresting demonstrators who have spoken out. People have disappeared from jobs, homes have been raided, and people targeted. This isn’t some spy novel. This is happening. Here. He is literally ordering “anti American” history to be removed from our national museums. Removing notable pioneers in our military, government, medical fields, and countless other areas simply because they’re not a white man. He took over the Kennedy Center just because he thought it was too inclusive. So, I ask you, where is THE line? At what point do you realize you’ve bet on a bad horse and do something? Or are you planning on going down with the ship? This is not just another politician who can’t do any harm because they’ll be gone in 4 years. This man is destroying our country, the country you are supposed to protect regardless of party. You are failing and history will remember you, and not in a good light. Where is the line?
