One can imagine him jockeying himself in as a kind of regent if the king's capacities become further diminished. I mean, he's already done that... so it'd be more a question of degree. Then it's just a matter of finding a legal subterfuge to make it official. And, needless to say, permanent.

If you read accounts written before these historic breakdowns (Germany 30s, Rwanda 90s, Yugoslavia 90s, Hungary 10s), people did see it coming and felt (were) helpless to stop it. That’s where we are now. Outlook not rosy.

Definitely both, with a heaping dose of God damn this show jumped the shark years ago and it just keeps going

Any idea of the numbers on the supply side of this equation?
