Founding Father Speaks to Trunpettes

Congress was envisioned as the primary power because it limited government by whim or faction. This is Madison:

““…the smaller the number of individuals composing a majority, and the smaller the compass within which they are placed, the more easily will they concert and execute their plans of oppression. Extend the sphere, and you take in a greater variety of parties and interests; you make it less probable that a majority of the whole will have a common motive to invade the rights of other citizens.”
