The Office of the Head of State (The throne) is the king/queen/prince/duke/whatever-the-fuck's private property ordained to them and their family by god's grace. That's literally how monarchy -at least, non-popular and non-constitutional monarchy (which I'm assuming is the type you mean)- is defined. You don't have the right to take my private property -the piece of land- away from me if I'm not treating it well (i.e. letting it rot, instead of building something in it). Why would you get the right to take away my private property -the office of the head of state- if you decide I'm not treating it well? If you can, then what's the point? Just have a republic where the head of state isn't "private property" in the first place.

Strawberry sauce seems pretty common in the south. Bananas foster is more of a rice belt thing, but you can find it in more and more places now. A real Texan doesn't distinguish his pancakes by the condiments, but by the presence of pecans in the batter.

Pecans make pancakes 3000 times better.

I do not agree that the state is the private property of the monarch. I think that a monarch whose rule is immoral loses the Mandate of Heaven.

I don't agree with you. I myself am a popular-constitutionalist monarchist, and so I don't agree with the concept of the divine right in its entirety, but if you do (and the Mandate of Heaven is a purely Asian concept, I'm not sure if it applies to the Western monarchies, or any monarchy that doesn't adhere to it really), you suppose that the right-to-rule is given -ordained- by the divine. You are not divine. You don't get to decide if the person who's in charge by divine right is "abusing his power". If you can get to decide that, then what's the point of that right being divine? Why shouldn't the monarch be in power purely by popularity instead?

I am personally suspicious of populism, but what makes you think that brute force would inherently be an expression of divine will anymore than a vote for impeachment or some other kind of peaceful constitutional mechanism?
