    I certainly don’t have a monarchy. But I think I’d rather have one than that shitshow of a so-called constitution you’re labouring under. Go on, tell us all about how those checks and balances work, why don’t you?

    It’s almost as if fucking your flag every night, reciting the pledge of allegiance every morning, and getting a bunch of lifetime political appointees to have a seance every time they decide if the King, err, sorry, President who appointed them is allowed to ignore the constitution isn’t quite the world beating system you thought it was.

    Still, don’t be down. Always another country to invade and brown people to kill, eh? That’ll make you Great Again.
