"Consent of the governed" has only worked as long as we truly believe the Constitution is not just a piece of paper, but rather a compact between a free people willing to live within the self-restrainted boundaries. Once we break this wall as the governing class is about to do, then NO ONE is bound by such restraint. This is what I mean by the Republic being dead. We are only left with the Will to Power. It won't be pretty.
The Republic isn’t dead. We, the People are the Republic and we’re still alive, much to the chagrin of the commies in charge of ruining America, no doubt.
Keep your powder dry and stay alert. We are united in our sentiment and there are more of us than you think.
