(#5835) Nothing ratified in our National Constitution can be reversed with an executive order

      For those who got us into this mess by not learning when in the formative years but then believing a conman this post is for you. I am not judging here but not learning is a choice. I can understand if difficulties occur which make learning evasive but we each have the choice to make sure we understand the basics of life and our role in it. I consider understanding our form of government, democracy, and federalism as basic. The only way a Constitutional amendment can be changed is through an amendment process. I will give an outline now as to how the process works by quoting President Harry S. Truman, the 33rd president of the United States.
     "The amendment process is very difficult and time consuming: A proposed amendment must be passed by two-thirds of both houses of Congress, then ratified by the legislatures of three-fourths of the states. The ERA Amendment did not pass the necessary majority of state legislatures in the 1980s. Another option to start the amendment process is that two-thirds of the state legislatures could ask Congress to call a Constitutional Convention."-Harry S. Truman. So when you hear any politician, especially the one now leading our nation talk about how he will use executive orders to change our Constitution do not accept his lie.
     Our democracy is based upon the rule of law. If anyone chooses to change our democracy outside the rule of law then all bets are off as to constraints through rule of law. To negate the rule of law is to invalidate our social contract here within America. The people will not be constrained in their efforts to obstruct and block any demand made by anyone that is not constitutional  That is how we rebut any attempt by anyone to abuse our democracy outside the rule of law. We the people are the ultimate power in our government so is the responsibility to maintain our form of Constitutional government. If and when the time comes for us to force action because the rule of law has been violated then that will be our honorable duty!
