I’m convinced that the zeitgeist of 2008 has simply transposed itself to Trump this cycle. Our people want king. They want a monarch. They want a political messiah.

No wonder we lost the Republic and do nothing but pay the Constitution lip service when expedience trumps everything.

I think Trump will do more than pay lip service to the Constitution.

You nailed it.

Feels like ancient Greece. Democracy begets oligarchy, oligarchy begets tyranny,the cycle continues.
