No Kings Redux: Heavy Is the Head Obsessed With Imaginary Crowns

Court jesters and drama queens.

The wait is over. Time to break out the Trump baby balloons, grab a mask, pick a slogan, and think inside the box – the No Kings protests are back. Rehearse the script, cue the delusions, and prepare to spread the message: “America has no kings.” Wait, most people already know that. Why the fuss?

It seems numerous Americans firmly believe President Donald Trump is an authoritarian leader on the brink of coronation and that parading the streets while holding signs and shouting Dr. Seuss–like slogans will stop his spurious fascism. Never mind that he won the popular vote in 2024 and was elected president. Forget the laws he follows and the checks and balances by which he abides. It’s go time. Americans are living in The Handmaid’s Tale, with Nazi minions bending to the whims of their authoritarian master.

Just one question: Is the authoritarian president in the room with us right now?

The No Kings Fantasy

Nearly four months have passed since progressive activists first swarmed the streets nationwide under the banner “No Kings.” It was a well-organized and heavily funded event, backed by nearly 200 “partners” and rife with signs calling President Trump a con man, a rapist, and a felon, among other epithets. Conservative activist Christopher Rufo of the Manhattan Institute accidentally stumbled into one of these protests in Oregon and saw a sign that read “super callous, fragile, racist, sexist, Nazi POTUS,” a colorful riff on Mary Poppins.

The initial event reportedly drew more than five million people scattered across the country in various cities, determined to have their voices heard, to push back against Trump’s policies and to convince anybody within earshot that the elected US president is an authoritarian leader who must be stopped. “The crowd was populated mostly by Baby Boomers...”

Democrats once claimed they were pro-border enforcement. Now they are all anti-border enforcement, because Trump is president. They’re liars and hypocrites. But that’s not saying anything new.

I'm willing to make a deal:

We'll let all the illegals stay (except the violent ones).

But in exchange, at least 90% of woke liberals have to self-deport.

And no, we won't accept their mere promises to self deport.
Been there done that.

Rush used to say let the “immigrants” stay with the stipulation that they would not be allowed to vote for 20 years. Obviously Democrats would never stand for that proving that they don’t really give a damn about them. They are just votes.

I thought about posting the same thing.

I miss Rush.

I miss Rush a lot. He was an honest, itelligent man & I wonder what he would say about the recent protest.
