Fascinating.

So, basically, if I'm reading you correctly, the POTUS, through the US Military, can act with impunity? That makes him/her a monarch.

Nonsense. He's elected to office and can be voted out. He can also be impeached.

How does one get the creation of the role of a monarch from the writings of those who'd just thrown the off the yoke of one? He'd be employing the strawman fallacy because he ran out of legitimate options.
