IRONY part 3:

The US of A had a LOT of settlers from Merrie Olde England come to our shores, so we had several hundred years of History to draw on as how that "... bossing the world and his wife about and throwing hissy fits if challenged on it." is done and justified.

We are sure that, in several hundred years, we colonies will have 'adjusted' our attitudes properly to be semi-sane and decent folk...that is, if the 'Conservatives' haven't attained permanent control.
"Conservative" seems to be a slippery concept these days, having become nearly a sneaky euphemism for 'reactionary'.
