The best argument I've seen for checks and balances. PAT LEAHY.

I want to make sure you saw this.  On Tuesday, Donald Trump ludicrously claimed that Article 2 of the Constitution gives him the right to do "whatever [he] want[s] as president." Let me be clear: That is not what the Constitution says. And that Trump would claim it does -- to the American people -- speaks to the great risk our democracy faces from a Trump presidency. Trump's disturbing claim that he is above the law makes clear just how important it is that we uphold the checks and balances baked into the Constitution (yes, the same Constitution the president erroneously referenced). But to actually hold Trump and his corrupt administration accountable, we need a Democratic controlled Senate. The GOP has shown that their only loyalty lies with Trump -- not to our Constitution, not to our Democracy, and certainly not to the American people. And to take back the Senate for Democrats, we need to win three seats in 2020. Thank you. Sincerely, Patrick Leahy U.S. Senator CONTRIBUTE »
