OK, thanks. The reason I asked if you were not a minion is because you said "Minions response is always predictable." And, it seems to me, I admit that I am biased and may be wrong, but it seems to me that your responses are predictable.
As for Trump doing something unconstitutional, he certainly needs to to be called out on it if he is. I have complete confidence that the Dems and Never Trumpers or Anti-Trumpers will do so and have him removed if they can prove the charge.
Regardless of that outcome, I will still vote Republican in 2020, not because the Repubs are all a bunch of good guys (I have no illusions about their innocence--they have been complicit in a lot, if not most, of the crap that has been laid on our constitutional system), but, simply because they are not, at this time, as dangerous to our constitutional system as the Dems have become. And the Dems show no signs of any mea culpa--quite the contrary, they are becoming more openly radical leftist.

So we agree on one thing, we are both voting based on a perceived danger, I happen to believe another term of Trump will do irreparable harm to this country. Sadly the days of republicans and Democrats working and voting for the good of the country as a whole is so far behind us, I wonder if it will ever return.

I don't think that one man, opposed by so many from all sides, has the power to do the type of harm you envision.
Replacing our constitutional system of government with a Progressive regulatory state would, obviously, not only harm our system, it would eradicate it. One man could not do that. But electing a party to total federal power (dragging along a lot of State legislators and executives on its coattails) that basically promises to accomplish that transformation, will give it the power to make its promise come true.

Never said we agreed on what the danger was, I’m of the opinion the most immediate danger is named Trump.
