"Well, Doctor [Ben Franklin], what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?"

"A republic, if you can keep it"

The question I put to every individual American is: can you?

I've honestly wondered this too. But we cannot obey in advance. If they're going to try and take it from us, then there should be a fight every step of the way. That means our cynical perspectives, as right as they may be, could lead us into a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I tell myself if there weren’t going to be elections or if the admin had a sure fire way to compromise them, they wouldn’t be trying so hard to push through redistricting in every single state there’s a Republican-controlled state house/senate.

		What if that is the way? Plenty of countries have elections that are neither free nor fair. More likely Election Day suddenly ceases to occur.

Most likely, but with a predetermined outcome.
