Republicans claim that Dems are going to cancel the Queen of England.

[11 Bravo]

Sorry, kids. I understand your confusion, but try and keep up.
Only one Liz got cancelled this week. She does not set on the English throne, and the aforementioned cancellation was carried out by that mouth-breathing, knuckle-dragging crew of morons known as the Republican Party.

Dolts.

1. Who told them??? NT

[TheRealNorth]

2. Awesome!

You know who else canceled the Kings and Queens of England? George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, et.al.

3. Not quite

The British Empire went on to reach its zenith in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, well after Washington and the like were worm food.

They also returned in 1812 and seized control of our capitol for a time and burned the White House down.

We need to do a better job of teaching history in our schools.

5. They cancelled their rule over us.

6. Strike up the band!

That’s not how the poster worded it.

[CrackityJones75]

7. That is how I read it.

I mean if you know your history it is pretty obvious they didn’t actually end the monarchy.

[TheRealNorth]

11. Well, they ended the power that the British Monarchy had over us in the United States

Which is the point I was making.

[CrackityJones75]

16. Right. Thats how I took it.

[Crunchy Frog]

14. They didn't cancel them. They severed political ties with them.

I can't believe that people don't understand the difference.

4. I did see some of the red rose imbeciles on Twitter trying to make that case

Though I don’t consider them Democrats.

8. We already did that

on July 4th, 1776.

9. And that's a bad thing?

The responses are funny

I get that is not the government and that we won the revolution and it is not really our business, but I couldn’t care less if the royals were gone. Privileged wealth. I don’t get American obsession with the royal family.

10. The ghost of Benedict Arnold must be shocked and disgusted to hear that Democrats are doing that!

 
?

12. By definition a "republican" is against monarchy. Lol

[Brother Mythos]

13. I'm confused. Exactly why is it that I'm supposed to give a damn about ...

the media status of a monarch of a foreign country?

[treestar]

15. Interesting to know we had the power to do that

We could have done it long ago had we only known!
