Once this nightmare is over, I want to request that you and your colleagues seriously consider something that the Founding Fathers could never have anticipated. After all, those were the days before you could buy a crystal ball on Amazon. But we can make up for it now.

We need some way to ensure that a sitting president can be made accountable for illegal actions, whether they be against the Constitution or against any other laws. The President cannot be above the law, and the argument that an indictment would interfere with his duties is bogus – after all, taking over for the President is part of the Vice President’s job. As you well know, what has happened recently is extremely dangerous to our nation, not to mention an embarrassment to the United States on the global stage.

I’m not a lawyer, so I will leave the details to them. However, something as straightforward as creating a list of specific acts that a sitting president can be charged with would be a start. In my book, sedition would be at the top of the list.

With someone like this in the Oval Office, we do not have the luxury of spending weeks or months debating about impeachment. The last one resulted in absolutely nothing, and was once more an embarrassment to the United States on the global stage: it showed that the most powerful nation in the world has no mechanism for handling internal threats at the top executive level.

Please take this under serious consideration. With A Democratic majority in both houses, a measure like this could happen. Our future as a Democracy could depend on it.

And no need to hurry: we have four years to make it happen.

Sincerely,
