When George Washington was proven to be a British plant, the Founders were helpless because words.

Helpless! No recourse but to submit to the Will of the Invader. All would have had to bow before their skillful misinterpretation of our own documents. Bound and gagged by our own language, prostrated before our enemies through a mere artifice of phrase, aaaaand -- scene.

This is the logic of Guliani and Trump.

"But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security."

Gosh, that sounds like they're talking about Russian Military Intelligence! Spooky! How could they have known?

Yeah, I don't think the Founders meant what Guliani says they meant. I think they would have run the pretender out of town on a rail, language notwithstanding. Those guys were kinda tough.

We're a nation of laws and not of people, but absent law, it's all People.

Steve Bannon's mantra. He cultivates followers using their fears and loathings. Their goal is anarchy. His "people" need the daily laxative because they do not believe in healthy eating or a healthy Republic. They are attempting to spread their viral diseased message using all means possible, fair or foul. The Con is just a tool of the man who brought him to the dance.
