    Not even King behaviour. In the 1640s, over 100 years before the USA was even an idea in the heads of angry colonials, the English parliament made it clear that monarchs are not above the law when they created the high court of justice to try King Charles I and subsequently execute him.

    So they are trying to claim powers for the president that not even the fucking King of England had before the revolution.
