The True Meaning of the Constitution: Protect the Fundamental Rights of Everyone Equally (Even Trump)

We have heard everyone declare that it is their duty to uphold the Constitution to impeach Trump. If you have read my book (Defending Freedom of Contract) I opine the true meaning of the Constitution is to protect the rights of every American citizen equally. That sounds simple, but this concept has been violated time and time again in American history. In particular, the Constitution protects the unalienable natural law fundamental rights which are not disputed by the public. Said differently, to protect those rights that everyone is in 100% agreement such as the right to vote, to free speech, to work a lawful profession, to obtain knowledge, to play, to family, to friends (associations), to self-defense, to partake in contracts, to own property, to marriage, and to justice to name a few important natural law fundamental rights protected by the Ninth Amendment or the privileges and immunities clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. No one would dispute these rights.

The important right I mention above is the right to justice. There are an abundance of clauses in the bill of rights to protect the right of justice such as the right to a jury trial, the right to a speedy trail, the right not to incriminate oneself, the right to face your accuser or witnesses, the right to counsel, the right to obtain witnesses on their behalf, no excessive bail, the right to impartial jury, double jeopardy, and a few others. These clauses make up the right to justice and to protect the accused so they are innocent until proven guilty. Said differently, everyone is allowed due process of the law and there is no exception.

If I look at what is going on in the house impeachment hearings, if I see any violation to upholding the constitution it is the Democrats denying the President's natural law fundamental right to justice. Many of the above provisions of the constitution have been violated. There is no bigger crime than not upholding the constitution and violating the right of others. So, should those people not upholding the Constitution also be held accountable and also impeached?

This is the problem with ALL Americans, they truly do not know the Constitution, nor do they understand what it means to uphold the Constitution and this includes those naive constitutional scholars that testified before Congress in the impeachment hearings. Although Turley worried about the process being unfair mainly due to the speed and lack of evidence, he never brought up any concern about violating the rights of the president.

Even if Trump committed a crime and is guilty, he has rights that cannot be denied. If we have a Constitutional crisis it is being created by Democrats, not Trump.

Again, I do not like Trump. I do not like most of his policies, but they are better than what the 2020 Democratic presidential candidates offer. I would rather have Pence as president, but that does not mean I violate the rights of a person to get my way. Things like this have happened throughout U.S. history and I urge you to read my book to understand this principal because it goes further than slavery (Dred Scott).

This past week Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden were asked tough questions (and some thought even unfair). They responded in a defensive and angry fashion. Now, how would Nancy and Joe act if they were challenged with tough and sometimes unfair questions and accusations everyday? Would they be any different than how Trump behaves? Probably not. Everyone has a breaking point. For Nancy and Joe it was one question, but there rights have not been violated but Trump's rights have been violated, by Nancy Pelosi. Thus, asking Nancy if she "hates Trump" is a fair question for anyone who violates the rights of another. They must hate to commit a crime against them.
