And also, if any President was 'told what to do' that President's duty would be to tell the American people, and personal safety is not a mitigation. That is, you take that oath, then sell out the nation to protect your hide or your kid's hide? Sorry, no one forced you to take that oath, and that is what that oath means.
I also take issue with the word 'denounce'. To oppose his anti equality policy and advocate for equality is not to denounce him, it is to disagree with him and oppose his nut laced policy. That choice of words stinks to the rafters.
