The concept of a “First Lady” is evidence that Americans have unresolved feelings of remorse for having revolted against a monarchy. Evidently, you still haven’t learned to live without a monarch. More and more, the Presidency is becoming an “elected monarchy” — only with real powers, not the symbolic residual powers of the monarchy you threw off, over two centuries ago.

It irks me to see people refer to our elected representatives as “leaders”. They are supposed to serve, not lead.

According to the US `Fleet street’/4th estate,’ we only have an Imperial/monarchial presidency when a non-Democrat is in residency in the WH.
NBC is calling First Lady high-water slacks/boob belt/panty lines/garish color combos a `Hip Fashion Icon.’
Banned from the trip, the alphabet news agencies still drag themselves forward on their bellies, ears down, whimpering and tails between their legs to lick her $500 sneakers.
Btw, back in 1776 the king still had power, even if he was loony tunes/otherwise, your point is well taken; perception is reality.
