Power acquired is seldom relinquished, especially if accompanied by self enrichment.

The unmitigated damage America has suffered as a result of the 2016 election both at home and abroad, should be a wake up call. It's time to amend the Constitution. There's just one problem. The miscreants we've elected to represent the best interests of the people are under no obligation under the Constitution to do so because the result would be a decided shift in power from government to the people. Power acquired is seldom relinquished, especially when with power, comes self enrichment.
