Anti-Trump "No Kings" protests are planned across the U.S. on Saturday.
Donald Trump has responded to planned "No Kings" protests against his leadership, saying "we're not a king at all."
Demonstrations targeting him are planned nationwide on Saturday, the same day as a military parade celebrating the U.S. Army's 250th anniversary in Washington, D.C, which coincides with the president's 79th birthday.
Trump isn’t a king the same way Augustus wasn’t a king—they became something even more extreme, while dressing themselves up in the shells of the republican institutions they destroyed.
Not in this case. Real life is accidentally so shitty, it makes for passable satire. I mean if the dude would've conciously pulled it off, I'd almost be okay with him.
Completely unrelated, but the band Sleep Token released a song title Damocles in their recent album, and it's great. The whole album and everything they release is great, but I am particularly fond of Damocles.
Not going to lie, I'm really irritated that his birthday falls on the exact date of this anniversary... He can have his birthday dictator worship and claim that's not what it's for and make us look "ungrateful to the army" for protesting it...
"Calm down folks, and I mean folks, there are no kings here. Just one, me! The best king with the very most words. Make my bank account Grat again and go fuck yourself! See you in the Golfclub losers. "
"A king would say I'm not going to get this...he wouldn't have to call up [House Speaker] Mike Johnson and [Senate Majority Leader John] Thune..." Needs to change up his statement to say "...he wouldn't have to call up all of his blindly loyal 'yes men' " Because that's just so much effort for him.
