Our Founders foresaw a maniacal leader...hell, they had just thrown off one. They made provisions in The Constitution for it. What they did not foresee was a gutless, compliant party willing to let said leader do whatever he wanted to tear down Democracy if they thought it would keep them in power. Trump is a problem...a damned serious one. But one that could have been handled and, for want of a better word, neutered by a functioning Congress. The reason Nixon resigned is because back then we had Republicans that took their oath to the Constitution seriously. Barry Goldwater told Nixon he simply didn't have the votes in the Senate to avoid impeachment, and the bastard resigned the next day. Even more pathetic is that we would need what? A total of around 10 between the House and the Senate to stand up to him. We just don't have Republicans today who have the morality to do the right thing...as far as they're concerned, their oath is to Trump. Every one of them needs to go.
