I never before noticed that “both alike in dignity” could be an insult as easily as a compliment.
Also: even if, in this instance, Ross Douthat were perfectly right, who in their right mind would consider it a good thing that our institutions are so fragile we even need to be discussing this?
Yeah, something like this I suspect:
Honduras didn’t take violent action either, the courts attempted to arrest the president and he was forced to flee the country and then the acting government put martial law in place during the election for “security.” They even went with effectively one-party rule after stacking the courts (sounds familiar, right?)
It’s either that or be repeatedly punched in the head, or have your head stuck down the bog and the flush pulled.
