So now the House of Representatives has reverted to using mob mentality? What some Republican House members did Wednesday by storming a secure hearing room and disrupting a Constitutional proceeding was done with a mob mentality encouraged by the president.

What kind of an example was that to set for the American people? Trampling the Constitution at the highest offices in the land.

The representatives honored their constitutional right to assemble and then dishonored the constitutional process by entering the closed-door hearings.

Do we have the right to pick and choose which laws we obey? My fear is that we are becoming a lawless nation without regard to our Constitution and our laws, much to Mr. Trump’s delight.

This is how dictators create themselves.
