No, ask Roberts. We absolutely had to throw out King George. His reign was willed by "God". What we need is a king willed by the people in an election where each state gets equal say no matter how many people live there. Once there's a king, Roberts is sure he'll let us keep having elections.

They viewed it as ‘unsettled war.’ To come: similar ruling regarding the Civil War plus ‘unsettled law’ rulings to eliminate the 1st, 13th, 14th, 15th,19th Amendments…did I miss any?

Or it could also be that SCOTUS has so much of their own immunity that they can afford to spread it around.

Unfortunately for them, it's too late to rejoin Britain. The monarchy has lost most of its power and Britain really doesn't want the US anymore.
