I remember reading something long ago by a guy
who believed that the deep divide between the states, religiously, economically, culturally,militarily, could only be united by the threat to all citizens inalienable rights by a monarchy. Seems freakishly relevant today.

IT'S NO ACCIDENT that anti-American, child-raping, Putin puppet fascist dictator wannabe traitor Trump filled his Cabinet full of the most ignorant, arrogant, lawless, deluded, anti-truth, anti-science, anti-human rights criminal corrupt cronies. NO AMERICAN OF HONOR WOULD EVER WORK FOR THE FASCIST.
