Why President Trump’s threat of genocide matters He may avoid immediate constitutional and legal sanctions, but this threat should not be forgotten New by me, at @prospectmagazine.co.uk www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/ideas/law/th...

What is not being done is any recourse to the one document that provides for situations where a president needs prompt removal from office: the constitution of the United States. The checks and balances are already there, ready to be used. But they are ignored, as if these provisions did not exist. The United States may as well not have a written constitution.

For what is now happening is not because of any inherent strength of the presidency in the United States political system. It is happening because the legislative and judicial branches are letting it happen. The constitutional tools are there to fix this, but those who can use these tools are refusing to use them.

And the international legal order offers no constraint. Although it is important in principle to recognise that what Trump is threatening is in breach of international laws, nobody expects these laws to make any practical difference. There will be no sanctions on Trump or the United States for the threat to destroy an entire civilisation. Many world leaders also are just waiting for the problem to somehow go away.

Wise words indeed "The world is run by a genocidal madman. That is the firm, uncontestable reality of it.""He must be stopped. That is the task of all right-thinking people, from the lowliest campaigner to the highest world leader. If we can’t recognise the urgency of this now, it will be too late."
