For the republic, if we can keep it. Yes, in theory. That's only as good as the folks who are actually appointed to uphold said BoR, etc. As they say, " people is policy." Do we still have that republic? And I do not mean the 'R' after a politician's name. If we can keep it; which I'm afraid we've been poor stewards indeed at keeping anything resembling the republic. It's the reason why Trump, for instance, could claim "take the guns first then due process", or "involuntary confinement", or "gotta get their shots", and a whole litany of 170 betrayals of his campaign promises. Just another cog in the wheel that's turning over the republic today. But...
