Trump's enablers claim they're trying to restore America to what the Founders intended - by handing virtually despotic power to someone the Founders would have considered wildly unsuited to the presidency; someone who openly praises iron-fisted dictators.

On the other hand, some Trumpers think the Founders were too infected by "Enlightenment liberalism," and they would rather have a "Christian" monarch - scare quotes because Trumpers obviously think Christian virtues are less important than Christian identitarianism.
