" His gun rant did it for me."

His gun rant, his anti-lawyer tirades and his border protection using American military (totally illegal and with good reason).

He is a pompous jerk.

"...border protection using American military..."

So this would mean you don't consider unchecked invasion of our nation by illegals to come under the blanket of "all enemies, foreign and domestic"? Curious.

Just a minor point, but I thought one of the duties of government was to protect us from invasion. Does not "border protection" fall under "protecting us from invasion". Article IV, Sect 4 reads, "The United States shall guarantee to every state in this union a Republican form of government, and shall protect each of them against invasion." Admittedly, that task belongs to the militia in a constitutional sense; but since the federal government essentially disbanded the civilian militia in favor of the National Guard (a branch of the U.S. Army), the only way it can enforce Article IV, Sect 4 is by using the Army.
