    Trump intends to rule without
    Congress and without the courts,
    and the Republicans happy to let
    him do it.

    It is the Fourth Reich.

    However, victory exposed Parliamentarian divisions over the nature
    of the political settlement. The vast majority went to war in 1642
    to assert Parliament's right to participate in government, not
    abolish the monarchy, which meant Charles' refusal to make
    concessions led to a stalemate. Concern over the political
    influence of radicals within the New Model Army like Oliver
    Cromwell led to an alliance between moderate Parliamentarians and
    Royalists, supported by the Covenanter Scots. Royalist defeat in
    the 1648 Second English Civil War resulted in the execution of
    Charles I in January 1649, and establishment of the Commonwealth
    of England.

    I remember the Magna Carta only being
    signed because King John depended on the
    barons to raise money for the crown.
