Speaker pelosi good morning. Lets begin where our founders began in 1776. When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for people to dissolve the political bonds that have connected them with another. With those words, our founders courageously began our declaration of independence from an oppressive monarch for, among other grievances, the kings refusal to follow rightfully passed laws.

When crafting the constitution, the founders feared the return of a monarchy in america. And having just fought a war of independence, they specifically feared the prospects of a king president , corrupted by foreign influence.

It is a tough thing to do. You had better have a good reason for doing it. And i do. I think trump is a danger. I think the country would be in real trouble with four more years of him. Steve this is in contrast to what you wrote in twitter in 2016, saying, im voting for trump on november 9. If trump loses, im grabbing my musket. Mr. Walsh my infamous musket tweet. I didnt love or like trump. He wasnt hillary, so i think a lot of republicans thought it was an easy vote.
