Several monarchies survived because they gave up the power to the people, not cause people want the fascist shit more commonly the result in republics in modern times. Nazi germany, fascist italy, china a republic, 22 of them in russian federation, venezuela a republic, Spain went from republic to fascist dictatorship back to monarchy, North Korea is officially the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, and... Trump. You’re confused with autocratic republics.
Ok, it’s not working too well for the Saudies, but look at it this way: you let the majority of the country pick the most powerful person every four year, hoping it’s a good pheno. Considering in most countries more than half the people are idiots maybe not a good idea. They might pick a runt lacking all the qualities a good king should have. In monarchies we spent hundreds of years breeding royals, creating stable lines, and than hybridize with other royals families, slaugthering the ones we didn’t like. And then stripped them from actual power in a constitution and let the people decide what the king must do. Denmark, UK, Canada, Australia, NL, Sweden, Luxembourgh, are typically in the top when it comes to standard of living and economically.
Anyway... Trump supporters are in a cult, their desires no longer match what’s good for them. according to experts it takes about 2 years for cultist to snap out of it once they left the cult or the leader dies.
You are at the verge of Plato’s 5th stage of a republic, Tyranny.
“
Democracy then degenerates into tyranny where no one has discipline and society exists in chaos. Democracy is taken over by the longing for freedom. Power must be seized to maintain order. A champion will come along and experience power, which will cause him to become a tyrant. The people will start to hate him and eventually try to remove him but will realize they are not able.
The tyrannical man is the son of the democratic man. He is the worst form of man due to his being the most unjust and thus the furthest removed from any joy of the true kind. He is consumed by lawless desires which cause him to do many terrible things such as murdering and plundering. He comes closest to complete lawlessness. The idea of moderation does not exist to him. He is consumed by the basest pleasures in life, and being granted these pleasures at a whim destroys the type of pleasure only attainable through knowing pain. If he spends all of his money and becomes poor, the tyrant will steal and conquer to satiate his desires, but will eventually overreach and force unto himself a fear of those around him, effectively limiting his own freedom. The tyrant always runs the risk of being killed in revenge for all the unjust things he has done. He becomes afraid to leave his own home and becomes trapped inside. Therefore, his lawlessness leads to his own self-imprisonment.

“Champion” in the eye of the beholder of course, but isn’t it fascinating Plato predicted Trumps nearly 2400 years ago already. Down to becoming bunkerboy.
Maybe, maybe the whole independence war wasn’t such a bright idea after all. I know that’s blasphemy in the US but think about it, if it weren’t for those damn French and their neverending desire to meddle in other countries, you could have been like Canada. Or maybe even like Australia or New Zealand, where common sense is still horse sense.
Now there happens to be a royal line available at the right time. Harry, Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex, a fine specimen with what Plato refers to as a soul of gold. Harry is close with Obama and Jill Biden, people with silver souls. The United Kingdom of the Americas. You could even include South Korea as a colony like a proper european monarchy.
