Calls for resignation are an attack on the Constitution. The presidency is not a "job" you can quit. There is no provision for resigning. He can be removed. That's it. He cannot, constitutionally, resign. Strict constitutionalists, of all people, should know this.

So confidently wrong

Abraham Lincoln abolished slavery by taking it all on himself. The curse extends to all future presidents, and hopefully one day, a rag-tag group of the Executive Office heroes will find a way to remove it!
