During a segment this Monday, Fox News judicial analyst Andrew Napolitano called into question President Trumps fitness for office, saying that hes in violation of his oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution.
In nearly three years in office, President Donald Trump has spent federal dollars not authorized by Congress; separated families and incarcerated children at the Texas-Mexico border in defiance of a federal court order; pulled 1,000 American troops out of Syria ignoring a commitment to allies and facilitated war against civilians there; and sent 2,000 American troops to Saudi Arabia without a congressional authorization or declaration of war, Napolitano said on Fox Nation.
He has also criminally obstructed a Department of Justice investigation of himself, but escaped prosecution because of the intercession of an attorney general more loyal to him than to the Constitution. The Constitution! he exclaimed.
Napolitano pointed out that at the outset of his presidency, Trump took the presidential oath of office, promising that he would Faithfully execute his obligation to protect and defend the Constitution. James Madison, Napolitano said, insisted that the word Faithfully be in the presidential oath and that the oath itself be in the Constitution to remind presidents to enforce laws and comply with constitutional Provisions whether they agree with them or not and to immunize the oath from congressional alteration.
