Natural order. We structure all of nature into kingdoms. They flower out from a core archetype. And it also helps project an inheritable identity.
The problem above any American political and philosophical questions (moral questions notwithstanding), is mistaking Trump for anything resembling a worthy king. It will bring trouble.
In the ancient world the king was a symbol of the prosperity of the people and scapegoat for the sins and troubles of the people and was ritually killed and replaced when things weren’t working out. History whispers that one should be careful what one wishes for.
Social Darwinistic systems are inherently unstable. People eventually get tired of corruption and being abused.
