Formerly, there’d be an outpouring like JFK if it was dramatic enough, but no pomp and circumstance on the scale of the Queen.
Now? It would be a shitshow divided by party affiliation :/
I support the death of who ever is the president of America
Scale it considering that a president is appointed for 4 years, a monarch for life. Overall, I don’t find it weird that people need time to mourn when their political system gets a good shake…
What shake? UK didn't even had a small succession crisis, not even a tiny civil war
