The “No Kings” protest is taking place in cities across the country in response to Trump’s masked ICE agents and the deployment of troops in American cities.
Not just cities, but a ton of small towns too. Find one near you
I’ll just leave this here…
Trump says he’s ‘not a king’
Bad protesters!
The fact that he said that means it’s bothering the fuck out of him which is good
“'No Kings’: How is that objectionable?” Indivisible’s Ezra Levin, a “No Kings” organizer, asked Rachel Maddow during an interview on MSNBC earlier this week. “How could anybody say that’s anything other than the most American thing since apple pie?”
It’s probably more American than apple pie.
To quote a prior comment of mine:

The short summary:
Trivia: while the phrase “American as apple pie” is a thing, it’s something of a misnomer. Apples aren’t New World, and apple pie was a thing prior to Europeans heading over to the Americas.
What’s more American than something that didn’t originate on this continent?
I’d argue Apple Pie is from Wales, because it usually isn’t worth fucking around making one that wasn’t a granny smith Apple or better.
As American as a pizza pie. So many combos. Combiners “new world” and “old world”.
He is not. He is a Shitler.
Trump is a piece of human shit that is trying to become a king.
“I’m not a [king]. I earned everything I got.”
