So he's calling himself a king now, eh?

Please don't elect Temu Trump (Pierre Poilievre) or Trump's useful idiot Doug Ford.
If Trump wants to be a king then he should be treated like a king >:3
I was just thinking of that...
To the guillotine!
The only cut to federal spending I’m willing to accept.
Louis XVI was a king... 👀
“Any man who must say, 'I am the king' is no true king”
Does anyone disagree with this? There is no longer much difference between the US president and a king. He literally has the right to simply legally kill people and congress and the judicial branch have little will or power to interrupt any of his shenanigans. I think king is a closer to correct term than president. Fascist dictator would be the closest, but I think he prefers the term king.
Congress has the power to impeach him and remove him from office. Of course, like the last 10 or so war criminal presidents of the U.S., they don't. Likewise, the courts have the power to neuter his presidency - and had the power to put him in prison - but don't, and didn't.
The precise reason why the solution has always been total system replacement. From within or without.
Remember a couple of years ago when Biden just made it illegal for rail workers to strike?
Just pointing out that this king shit didn't start with Trump, it's just gone even more off the rails.It was under Biden that presidential immunity went out of control too. Biden effectively set the stage for the downfall of democracy.
For every american that takes pride in their constitution (and especially the 2nd amendment whiners that complain about tyranny), your word will be worth less than Putin's if you don't depose this tyrant.
Well Trump can say whatever he wants, whether he actually can do what he says is another matter. In this case for example, congestion pricing has simply continued as before because Trump doesn't have power to change the laws of New York. When it comes to killing people, government employees are subject to the same rules as everyone else about unlawful killing, even if they were ordered by the president. Of course Trump can pardon his assassins for federal crimes, but states can still prosecute them and if nothing else the victims can still use deadly force to defend themselves without being guilty of a crime.
So legally speaking, Trump isn't so much a king as just some fat, old, possibly mentally-challenged man who can't be punished for things.
But in the technical sense, we're all kings and can do whatever we want. We've just agreed as a society that if people do certain things we all unite to help put them in a cage or whatever.
Oh, he prefers king? Fascist dictator it is then.
What a fucking moron.
Behold... The REPUBLICAN party!
(also, RIP traffic in NYC, I hope this pushes them over the edge to just ban most private traffic in the city and become the New Amsterdam again)
With all the hand wringing about Threads, Truth Social has to be the worst mastodon server by far. Good thing federation is turned off lol.
Is this a joke I don't get? TS has nothing to do with Mastodon.
It is a mastodon server with the soapbox front end and federation disabled.

Did he stop congestion pricing now? Or did he "stop" it like he "stopped" the russian-ukrainian war?
I noticed the weird general compulsion of anglos to call someone king or queen without any reason, just as general praise, and it's especially hard to understand in case of USA where their loudly proclaim their "republicanism". Sounds like freudian slip so massive it got normalised in common language.
There’s only one true king in America…his greatest hits album is available on Apple Music…
I didn't know burger king made an album!
I'm so glad BB King and Elvis aren't around to see this bullshit.
Johnie Rotten? King is gone but not forgotten
Please remove the body shaming comment, or we will remove the post.ty!
That's reasonable. Done!
You missed the part where the White House official posted an AI pic with the king quote and his stupid face wearing a crown
It's like a South Park episode, except you couldn't make this up. It's beyond satire.
i sometimes get amazed about how trumpism 2.0 is one big circle j*rk. (albeit with people really suffering with their edgelording)
