OUR MOST BASIC PRINCIPLE OF GOVERNMENT:
...”to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed...”
Declaration of Independence July 4, 1776
This is the underlying government concept IGNORED by those in the “resist” movement— those intent on trying to overturn the Trump Presidency. These folks are attempting to undo the will of the people. They have forgotten the underlying principle of our democracy— stated above so clearly and eloquently in our own Declaration of Independence—that the right to govern comes (only) from the consent of the governed.
That right—to govern—comes not from the FBI top-echelon clowns and bigwigs, or the State Department pointy heads and smart asses, or those of the CIA, NSA—- or even past presidents. The right to sit in the Oval Office comes only from the voters. They spoke out loud and clear in November of 2016. (NB: Mr. Trump would have won the popular vote too—had we had better control of voting by illegal immigrants in so called “sanctuary” cities.)
The citizens of this wide nation made their decision legitimately. Those who are resisting that decision should go back and read our founding documents and especially on this day— read the Declaration of July 4 1776.
To resist the decision of the people’s choice is to deny our Founder’s efforts and sacrifice, to ignore our unique heritage and deny allegiance to our most basic founding principle.
How would we characterize these “resistors”? Ignorant? Misled? Uninformed?........or worse?
