9k:RD/ United States and monarchy (Q618)

Main entry

Roman dictators [1]
Only absolute monarchy or a military state can rescue the United States (James M. Varnum 1782) [2] -> that's really funny. by now, a lot of people think the 1780s was the time when the United States was functional.
Washington didn't like this, even as that handful of army men wanted to crown him king.
monarchists as treacherous and pretended friends of United States (Civis, c.1782) [3] -> that's getting very close to the concept of Tories trying to "steal back" England and getting their name, although it's not precisely the same because it doesn't make reference to parliament.
