        On what date will we pin the official death of representative democracy and mark the official rise of theocratic authoritarian kleptocracy?

        Very misleading tweet. The Graf House was rebuilt a few years ago. Not quite accurate to call it "demolished"

        While it was,indeed, reconstructed that does not take away the fact that it was demolished. A reconstruction is not the same as an original

        But the house is still there. It's the same house, in the same exact place. It was torn down and rebuilt but inaccurate to say demolished.

        Sorry we are having a miscommunication. To be torn down is to demolish. By definition. After the demolition, a rebuilding may occur.

        Ok so then clarify by saying "original" was demolished, or "demolished in ...rebuilt in..." The building is still there!

        The entire town of Williamsburg Virginia exists because of the nuances of this concept. As does the historical reproduction industry.

        Yes, it would be good to refer to the reproduction.

        It seems so odd to me that someone wouldn't preserve that building. Thanks for sharing.

        If I remember there was a hamburger place called Snow White there until it was torn down to build a replica of where Jefferson worked.
