Yeah, I think there are more echoes with the previous 4T here in the US, or Britain's last couple of 4Ts when it was the reigning hegemon, than there are with the Glorious Revolution. I mean, what, Oliver Cromwell as Reagan? Dick Cromwell as Bush 41? Charles II as Clinton and Bush 43? The end of the Cold War as the Restoration? The Civil Rights Movement as the English Civil War? Obama as James II? Trump as James II? Those are all silly comparisons, and only silly people would make them. I mean, they both fit into the saecular pattern, but two very different saeculums that played out two very different ways.
