Lets try 1776 and see if they agree.
I like your way of thinking.
I liked both your post and your follow up.
The problem I see is that while we haven’t ye tmanaged to repeat 1776, we did repeat 1976 in 2008 and it took 8 years to get the backlash, rather than four, and then (arguably) we did it again with Jimmy Carter III only four years later.
Full me once, shame on you, full me twice, shame on me.
Like all sequels, things are tending towards parody. At least Jimmy only committed adultery in his heart and, whatever else you want to say about the rabbit abuser, he felt bad about the adultery.
