Totalitarian government is very controlling
King George III refused to read or even receive the Olive Branch Petition. So he basically thought it was a dumb idea to try and consider making peace with the colonies.
<span>they made specific plans to be ready for war, appointed George Washington as leader
</span>
delegates from 12 colonies met to discuss problems with England, some were for war, others wanted peace, first attempt at a Republican government
So in a easy way to explain yes they were ready to revolt they appointed a military leader they knew what they were doing
In 1973 the Watergate burglars testified that they had been employed by Nixon's re-election campaign.
Hope this helped.
