So either the Constitution means everything, or it means nothing. And if it means nothing, rip it up, disassemble Congress and let anarchy reign.

Ehhh...the better argument is this, the constitution failed to take into account large, well funded entities which exist only to influence congressional bodies more overtly than constituents of the elected officials. Let’s offer some some strong solutions: ex-elected officials can’t work for lobby groups and term limits.
Take the bias out. And the impeachment didn’t mean nothing because of the constitution but because the case made by the dems is weak. You don’t remove an Democratic elected president without established high crimes and misdemeanors. This was a political stunt...the constitution laughs at this bullshit. This isn’t the ex soviet eastern block country or a banana republic
