A democratically elected leader = Macrone in France. Angela Merkle in Germany.
Our electoral college crap has allowed 2 usurpers to seize the office
away from the DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED democrat.
OR/ one with the most votes.
Henry the 8 is a perfect parallel to maggot.
He also THINKS he has absolute power.
It ended badly for Henry, It will end badly for BLOTUS.
PS he couldn't lead a Jr. High school band.
