The U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff reminded American forces Tuesday of their oath to defend the Constitution following the attacks on the Capitol building last week.
The letter was addressed to The Joint Force, which is made up of about 1.3 million active duty service members and more than 811,000 National Guard and reservists — all of whom swore an oath to "Support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic." The oath has stood since America's founding nearly 250 years ago.

The constitution defines the powers of the Congress, Judiciary, and President. It also defines the democratic process to include elections, and checks and balances. Trump is not following the letter nor the spirit of the constitution, therefore, he is an enemy of the constitution.
