Illegal war started by a man constitutionally ineligible to be president.

The only reason why he ran for office was to keep himself out of prison.

John Adams said the Constitution is intended for a moral (virtuous) people. Meaning, it isn't self executing. You need people willing to commit to its guidance. And yet just enough of the people gave consent to be governed to a man who sent a mob to assassinate the vice-president of the U.S. when that VPOTUS, Mike Pence, refused Trump's order to overturn an election that Trump had lost.

How can corruption of this magnitude be described as virtuous?
