It blows my mind that there are no legal blocks in place to prevent this (yeah, I know it’s because this shit was so unthinkable that nobody prepared for it). This yahoo is on a mission to destroy EVERYTHING America was supposed to stand for. SOMETHING has to be done to stop this shit!

    Show me in the Constitution any mention of the FBI as a requirement for any position of the executive branch.

      That’s not how the constitution works

      Which part would make a law requiring FBI checks to hold office illegal? If there isnt one then it’s not unconstitutional

        Well because the constitution explicitly defines the requirements of the office, in full. Congress making up additional requirements that are not amendments to the constitution would be violating the separation of powers, essentially it would allow congress with a simple majority to deny the Executive Branch it’s constitutional powers.

            Article 2, section 2, which is exactly what I was referring to. The constitution is not a long or complex document should I explain the electoral college to you next?
