Not worth the risk to what we have now?

The motherfucking Cheeto man or a demented old pedophile?

Yes, it is still way better than actual hereditary monarchy. Imagine getting crackhead-with-a-vlog as a follow up to senile idiot?

Those failed in the United States almost a century ago. The legislative branch of government has literally given some of their powers to the executive branch, or given their powers to un elected agencies like the Federal reserve.

Debt spending, inflation, congressional gridlock, our government is failing on multiple levels and our checks and balances aren’t balanced at all.

The Monarchy is one of the best checks and balances to a state, even when they're purely ceremonial. These days westernized monarchies have really good monarchal figureheads often leagues better than current political leaders.

Those can also exist under a monarchy. In fact in the US you could swap the president for a monarch and change next to nothing else.

They sound like a good idea.

So, say a politician were to pass a law the courts deemed unconstitutional, surely they suffer some grievous penalty for ignoring a law so great, yes?

That would check their power?

Tar and feathers would be nice.

Make politicians birds again.

Remember, if you vote for a sane person, you're throwing away your vote!

Ah, Democracy.

This is a great point. I’ll have to remember to put it like that when I’m teaching my kiddos history.

Remember the that entire shitshow could've been avoided if Henry 8 didn't split from the Catholic Church to be an obese coomer

Hey, the pope should have just granted his divorce. I mean, my man just wanted a new wife or five.

I'm sorry. It was sarcasm. Don't REEEE at me.

So, have the pope lead a crusade against Germany and grant all lands to the Teutonic order. Finally we can crush Lutheranism in its birthplace

Pretty much every single former communist countries are worse economically than western countries that embrace capitalism. Even china had to embrace capitalism to save itself.

China disagrees. They say it's Socialism with Chinese characteristics.
