Why wont my nav display dropdown-links vertically? - html

Question

I have been sitting for 4 hours now trying to make my nav display dropdown-links vetically but it continues to show them horizontally instead. I can´t figure out why this is happening or how to fix it.
I would appreciate it very much if some kind soul could tell me what I am doing wrong. I have a sneaking suspecion this is caused due to my settings for the nav (it changes size at a certain width) but I am not sure...
I have ripped my nav from my website and thrown everything into codepen, but even after several attempts to figure out where the problem starts - nothing! It displays "link1" right below and then just adds "link2" and "link3" to the right of it, instead of under
Please help?

If there are any oddities in the CSS it´s because I have a dropdown menu for mobile that display when you press an icon... it is not currently working either, but that a question for another time.

Change line 42 in css: "menu li a" to Display: block instead of Display: inline-block:
#menu li a {
text-transform: uppercase;
transition: all .5s ease;
text-decoration: none;
text-align: center;
line-height: 55px;
display: block;
}
