I think the biggest mistake was allowing lobbying interests a sway in politics. Yet we still held this land to be for Europeans (who were here first, nothing against indians, that's a separate issue)

Now our number one threat would be the banking institutions, but i think kneecapping the already crumbling mainstream media would be first.

Maybe descend into anarchy. Strengthen the bonds of community.

Ideally I want a republic, but we need demographics on our side. What would be wrong with a philosopher ruler in a populist fascist vein, intent to only be in power for 5-10 years - send Jews to Israel (or as in the past, bar them from participating in certain occupations) deport non-whites, or set them up on reservations, maybe allow a minority of some respectable folks (NatSocs had a bit of unlikely allies in that sense).

From there restore a constitutional Republic. And the most ideal form of libertarianism

Would it be bloodless? Probably not.

They knew. I forget who said it, but one of the founders when asked to describe what they accomplished said "A republic, if you can keep it". There are a bunch of quotes like that, they knew the risk is that it could descend into degeneracy, that's why initially they limited the vote to white men and limited holding office to wealthy white men.

We said the same thing. They expected the Citizens to act.

The Citizens no longer act.

Benjamin Franklin said that. A woman citizen asked him, what is exactly they gave them. His response. " A republic, if you can keep it". Supposedly General Washington said the country wouldn't last 20 years before falling apart.
