Maybe that’s where we’re all headed.
For many of us, British history is our history, at least to a time when our ancestors chose to emigrate and then we made our own history. Watching what is technically a part of our heritage be destroyed by an invader is kind of hard to take.
When the British are harder on an American president while welcoming despots and dictators then we know something has got to change in this relationship. We are tolerated when they need something abused when they don’t.
