First off, nobody should condone murder. We've seen more than our fair share of political assassinations and attempted assassinations from crazies on both sides of the aisle over the years including a very near miss of Trump not so long ago. Regardless of how you feel about him, I can't imagine that the likely chaos resulting from a successful assassination would have been good for the country.

I myself lean libertarian. I am not a fan of either political party. I usually vote for independent candidates because I think both parties are anti-democratic in how they operate (see how the DNC treated Bernie Sanders and how they swapped candidates and didn't bother to have a primary or how the RNC treated Ron Paul for just a couple of examples).

I voted for Trump 1 out of 3 times...in the latest election. Not because I'm a huge fan (you would never catch me wearing a MAGA hat for example) but because I thought he was better than the alternative...and there weren't even any solid independent candidates as far as I could tell. I don't regret my decision...yet.

As someone who considers himself a pretty strong supporter of the Constitution (though there's definitely a questionable amendment or two in there), I'm curious what specifically you think it is that Trump has done to violate the Constitution? The thing I hear most recently is the lack of due process for those being deported. But, while I obviously can't speak to every individual case, as far as I understand it, Congress makes the laws regarding immigration and the executive branch enforces them (as proscribed by the Constitution). The Trump administration, in general, is following the law. The due process of those being deported includes a hearing in front of an immigration judge. As far as I know, all of those being deported get or have gotten that (I believe that many of those being deported did not leave when ordered and/or did not show up when they previously had their day in court).

But since you didn't say, maybe this isn't even what you are referring to. But the general process should be Trump does something, if perceived to be something he doesn't have the authority to do then it can be challenged in court, if the supreme court ultimately rules against Trump then he must stop doing whatever that is, if he does not stop then he should be impeached. While I'm not exactly clear on what this protest was all about, one thing is certain...we definitely don't have a king and he can be removed any time the rest of government decides it is appropriate.

For the record, I think the U.S. should have as open of an immigration policy as possible. However, there are two things that typically occur during the legal immigration process that are necessary. The first is a background check. This often causes the most delays because it relies on the country of citizenship providing some of that information. The second is the Affidavit of Support which is designed to prove that you have sufficient income or other resources such that you are unlikely to need welfare assistance in the near future.

And as a side note, the reason the president seems to have so much power is that congress has delegated so much power to the executive branch over the years. Tariffs are a good example of this. The president has no authority to implement tariffs except for the power that congress has delegated to him (which for the most part was done a long time ago). Congress can take back that power any time it wants. However, they prefer to have someone else to blame.
