In America, it's good to be the king
American Thinker ^ | April 27, 2022 | Peggy Ryan

How is it that in America one man is able to singlehandedly cripple the U.S. economy, deprive over 300 million people of affordable fuel, allow millions of illegal aliens into the country — and oh, yeah, pick a fight with a superpower that could possibly lead to WWIII? 

This dictatorial oppression shouldn't be possible in a constitutional republic.  We have divided government into three branches that operate separately and independently. . .So where are Congress, our courts?  They can all see what's happening.  It's their duty to stop the one-man wrecking crew in the White House, to provide constitutional checks and balances.

Sadly, checks and balances no longer apply, because America is no longer a constitutional republic.  We're now a feudalist system, a form of political organization with three distinct social classes: royals, nobles, and peasants.  We didn't get here overnight; we have been drifting toward feudalism for years.  Some warned of our evolving class system, yet we continued down that path until we finally arrived.  Thus, we now live in a feudalist state with a monarch (King Joseph), nobles (Congress, oligarchs), and peasants (we the people). 

In the Middle Ages, feudalism was based on land ownership.  People were granted land in return for fealty and services.  Historically, the king owned all the land, which he parceled out to his nobles in return for their loyalty.  The nobles then rented out their land to peasants, who paid the nobles in produce and military service. 

Our American feudal system has a similar setup, only the currency traded is money, not land.  The king passes money and favors to nobles (Congress), who in turn pledge loyalty.  Oh, it's not cash (usually), but the king can turn a blind eye to kickbacks, insider trading, and dark money.

Sorry but 2 of the 3 branches are destructors! We, the people have no power.

For about 14 months it’s been a Democrat dumpster fire in every direction.

Their policies look just like sabotage!

One man hasn’t.

It’s a huge number of compatriots. The stupid, the wicked, the power hungry, and the complacent. He reigns with their permission and support.

And on the other side, patriots who were stupid or weak or proud. How many FReepers assured me that voter fraud would not impact the 2020 election? Trump has teams in place they said. There will be no significant fraud they said. Those of us who raised the concern were treated like we were irritating.

The Dems are flooding the country with hordes of illegals who will eventually be eligible to vote (for the Dems) or who will vote far sooner if massive fraud allows them to (as in 2020).

Yeah we’ve been called conspiracy nuts on every front yet now most of what we predicted has come to pass. Wonder if we’ll get an apology.

Of course!

Showing my ancient age....I’m a Dan Gurney fan, actually.

Dan the Man. Surfer Boy. The Eagle Scout. Mr. Versatile. America’s Racing Son.

Not to mention “the Red Baron”, Michael Schumacher.

“We’re now a feudalist system, a form of political organization with three distinct social classes: royals, nobles, and peasants.”

A feudalist system where the peasants are more likely to be obese than nobles or royalty. And are the most passively entertained and the least used to strenuous labor of any peasants that have ever existed.
