Democrats and assorted never-Trumpers are planning anti-Trump protests this weekend under the banner of ‘No Kings.’
It’s unclear why these losers think Trump sees himself as a king, but what else do these people have left but protests? They have shown repeatedly for months now, that they have nothing to offer the American people but their objections.
Randi Weingarten, the head of the country’s largest teacher union, is involved for some reason.
They’re using Flag Day, a day Trump has planned a U.S. Military parade, as the day to do this.
From their website:
On June 14—Flag Day—President Trump wants tanks in the street and a made-for-TV display of dominance for his birthday. A spectacle meant to look like strength. But real power isn’t staged in Washington. It rises up everywhere else.No Kings is a nationwide day of defiance. From city blocks to small towns, from courthouse steps to community parks, we’re taking action to reject authoritarianism—and show the world what democracy really looks like.We’re not gathering to feed his ego. We’re building a movement that leaves him behind.The flag doesn’t belong to President Trump. It belongs to us. We’re not watching history happen. We’re making it.On June 14th, we’re showing up everywhere he isn’t—to say no thrones, no crowns, no kings.
The flag doesn’t belong to Trump? Which one, the Mexican flag or the Communist flag? Those are the only two flags I’ve seen leftists waving over the last week.
This is obviously some kind of attempt to ‘reclaim’ patriotism, as some on the left have been urging Democrats to do in recent weeks. Good luck with that after the disgusting displays in California for the last four days.
Also, anyone who remembers the George W. Bush presidency and the left’s love of using the term ‘King George’ knows this is just a reminder that the left has not had an original idea in years.
The liberal media is just giddy about it.
From Newsweek:
What Are the ‘No Kings’ Protests?The “No Kings” protests are a “nationwide day of defiance” to “reject authoritarianism,” according to the event’s organizers. Dozens of grassroots groups are organizing the nationwide protests.Ezra Levin, co-founder of Indivisible, one of those groups, told Newsweek that the goal of the protest is to send a message that the United States “has no kings” amid Trump’s military parade in the nation’s capital, which coincides with the president’s 79th birthday.”He is planning to roll tanks through the streets of D.C. in celebration of his birthday, and that’s the kind of thing you normally wouldn’t see in a constitutional republic, certainly not America,” Levin said. “It’s something you’d see in North Korea or other authoritarian regimes.”The point of the protest isn’t just to “show up and be covered,” he said.”This is actually to send a strong message to leaders and institutions who are considering right now whether to capitulate or whether to fight back, and to send a message that this period we are in right now, this period of authoritarian breakthrough, is temporary. And democracy will reassert itself,” Levin said.
Read that last part again. It’s basically an admission that the left doesn’t believe the election in November was legitimate. Democracy only counts when they win.
I can’t speak for others on this, but I have left-wing protest fatigue. When are they not protesting?
I just don’t care.
