Many of the countries we once fought against are now allies, Japan, Germany, etc.

Like it or not, many if not all of the founders of this country were from the UK, they broke free and paid a huge price in war.

Since then we’ve fought with the British in two world wars and numerous other smaller wars.

The monarchy is not for the USA, but if the British hold it sacred as a part of their history, I don’t care, just look at what the woke insanity is doing to our country by tearing down all the statues, etc...maybe keeping a part of the past the good and bad is something worth thinking about.

Very good post.

I enjoyed watching the Coronation. Most of my ancestors came from Britain, and by marriage I continued those connections centuries later.

Maybe it’s partly an atavistic thing, but I greatly appreciate watching the customs and commemoration of all of those old values and all of the symbolism that the British Monarchy continues, while we in the US are rapidly losing connection with the past.

Long Live the King!
