“... The American Experiment will founder.”
I think they meant “flounder” but it’s only words. I’m always amazed when I read official documents that will likely live long beyond my lifetime which contain silly typos or obviously flawed reasoning.
- DennisP 6y agoI think they meant "founder," as in the intransigent verb: "to become disabled, to give way, to become submerged, to come to grief." https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/founder https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/founder
- imoverclocked 6y agotil: founder as a verb. Thanks for that!
- DennisP 6y agoYou're welcome and, er, I meant "intransitive," not "intransigent," which is a whole different thing :)
