Should the civil service of a given country, being the only body in a position to possibly do so, have the ability to unilaterally remove a head of state from office if that head of state presents a clear, unambiguous, incontestable danger to that country? That is the question which has been on my mind all afternoon: it is now clear that Donald trump intends to order the US military to commit war crimes; the path he has put his country on puts the entire world in more and more danger. Surely any country, nation or community would have no choice but to intervene before it is too late. While awarding a civil service such authority would raise all kinds of questions about democracy, I think the current situation makes it clear that democracy sometimes has its limits.
