Patrick Henry at the Virginia Ratifying Convention:

This, sir, is my great objection to the Constitution, that there is no true responsibility — and that the preservation of our liberty depends on the single chance of men being virtuous enough to make laws to punish themselves.

[Darksheare]

Yup.
If I had a time machine, I’d drag the founders forward to show them what needed to be reworded to not have any “wiggle room” for idiots to pull crap.
One of those things, exactly what Patrick Henry mentioned.

That is a truly pertinent quote. Thanks for posting it.

What’s your sense of this thing?

Mine is one of frustration that we cannot prosecute violations of oath when the characters involved advocate for anarchy and abortion, both of which directly contradict the meaning and intent of the very Constitution they “swear” to uphold and defend (as they wipe thier butts with it.)

Exactly. There's no enforcement clause for anything but treason.

But that’s the problem with constitutions that do have such laws enshrined—they are too readily abused. Have a look at the constitutions that are too comprehensive in its laws.

Never mind Tacitus’ famous quote, that outlines the fact that the state with the most laws is the most corrupt.
