What the conservative set within the GOP fears are the people, and thus put their in faith in DJT&Co. and the elite (both of their efforts seem to me to put their wealth and lifestyle first, and the vast majority of us last).
When the Framers sat to write COTUS in 1787 they were well aware that our revolution was successful against the most powerful Army and Navy in the world, at that time.
They understood the power of the people, they (for the most part) were instrumental in its success. Thus they faced a conundrum, should power be in the hands of the people, or a king. The Framers had also been well read, and settled on what was written by Charles, Baron de Montesquieu: The Separation of Power among an Executive, Legislative and Judiciary.
Today, we are a nation of laws, wherein no one person is above the law. That is currently under attack by Trump&Co. along with his fellow travelers in The Congress and people like those who will pretend this thread funny.
