Let’s see if I can articulate this properly. I started to use the word “correctly” instead of “properly”. But “properly” is the best word to use.
The US Citizens are the supreme rule of the Land (Land under authority of the US Constitution).
We can’t all effectively rule at the same time, so through the coming together of The People, and The States, two entities, together into marriage as one, through the birth of the US Constitution, created that Union of Marriage, the United States of America.
The President of the United States is the figure head of the Power of the Citizens and their government.
The US Senators are (or was until the 17th Amendment stripped of states of their constitutional right) the Ambassadors of their respective State’s Legislative government.
The US House of Representatives are the Ambassadors of the Citizens of their respective Congressional District.
Not all like Trump, not all liked Obama, not all liked Reagan, not all liked Kennedy, not all liked Lincoln, etc., etc., etc. That is the reason why we all can legislate and rule at the same time. We are politically polarized, always have been, always will be.
It has always been the will, or desire of some, to subject their fellow Citizens to their tyranny. No, these some, don’t view their will/desire, as tyranny, but as progress. But anytime Rights of the Supreme Entity, stated in the US Constitution, is rights given by government, and using governmental a tool to suggest it. That is when the Citizens have lost their respective role as the Entity that the US Constitution establishes them as.
The same with the 17th Amendment has silenced the voice of each State’s Legislative government. By removing their Ambassadors from their authority of electing them, and giving that authority to the Citizens of each State. Thus, weakening a strong marriage.
If a marriage can be weakened enough, but allowing there to maintain a semblance of a marriage, the marriage can eventually be destroyed all together.
The last thing in the name of progress to achieve, is the Citizens to give up their Rights as well, just as the States gave up theirs. Thus, fully destroying the marriage that created the Beautiful US Constitution.
