HaHa! Yes, I had no idea I was so obsessed with political debate until (i) I joined MB and (ii) Trump ran as a candidate.
But yeah, after this post I'm going to log out and do something festive. That's more of a promise to myself than to you, rostasi

Of course one thing I've noticed is that, unless Dolly Parton counts, the USA doesn't have a queen. More surprising is the the fact that of the 23 countries globally listed as "Full Democracy" (
https://worldpopulationreview.com/co...racy-countries), paradoxically, ten of them are constitutional monarchies.
And of that ten, four of them are ruled by the UK Queen. This is surely explains why the USA's democracy is at risk today: Never should've thrown that tea into Boston harbour, guys. It was obvious that no good would come of it !
