The Constitution is not under any kind of "existential" threat. You should be more worried about citizens not knowing their own Constitution than you should be worried about the government breaking it. Literally any valid view of American history would immediately demonstrate that we are moving forward in terms of overall liberty, not backward. With the possible exception of disenfranchised minority groups and lower classes, there has been increasing political transparency and quality of life in every respect, and the former are only still mistreated because of the power vacuum in their communities. The only reason why this is so outrageous is because people have short memories - I doubt many people are as shocked at this who lived through the Nixon Watergate scandal. That kind of corruption wouldn't so easily take place today.
