    I feel like if controlling all three branches is enough to undo the whole constitution, it wasnt that good. If they wanted to prevent a tyrant, they shouldve thought to ask “what if that tyrant is popular”

      They did dude. What do you think the 2nd amendment is for.

      Also, you say that like controlling all 3 branches is a small thing. It means you control the whole government…

      I mean… A popular tyrant will win no matter the political system, because who’s gonna do anything about them?
