Ronald Reagan’s former asst. attorney general tells The American Conservative that it’s time for President Donald Trump to go before his damage to the nation becomes permanent.“Trump has said and done appalling things no other president has dared — not even close,” said attorney Bruce Fein, pointing out that Rep. John Larson (D-Conn.) has introduced 13 articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump through House Resolution 1155, “to save the nation from a worse tyranny than provoked July 4, 1776.”Fein ticked down a long list of reasons to jettison Trump, including exploiting the powers of office “for billions of dollars in personal or family enrichment indistinguishable from bribery or extortion,” and “commercializ[ing] his pardon power as if he were a Sotheby auctioneer selling a Hieronymus Bosch painting.”He also razed Trump for “militariz[ing] domestic law enforcement by concocting national emergencies divorced from reality in Washington, DC, Los Angeles, Chicago, and Minneapolis to deploy the National Guard,” and for “retaliat[ing] against universities, lawyers, journalists, and lawfully present aliens for refusing to join Trump’s claque.”Not to mention, said Fein, Trump “threaten[ing] the death of the 6,000-year-old Iranian civilization,” and murdering “nearly 200 alleged drug traffickers in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific without even providing evidence of their crimes to the public.”“Congress should not idle like Nero while the Constitution is in flames,” said Fein. “… Trump must be impeached and removed from office immediately before it is too late. He is a dictator, pure and simple, who may well seek to disrupt the 2026 congressional elections by illegally invoking the Insurrection Act to dispatch the military to seize voting machines and occupy voting places.”Fein added that Trump orchestrated the January 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol “to prevent Vice President Mike Pence from counting state-certified electoral votes,” and this shows “Trump will move heaven and earth to remain in power.”“Our constitutional dispensation glorifying the rule of law and liberty may be destined to pass away. But it is the duty of Congress to be the last, not the first to surrender,” said Fein.
