Ok so it’s a way to show that a good amount of people are tired of a fascist dictator. That a good amount of people will come together and show that they love our country and what we started as. It also shows that if we stand together we can go on strike and cripple the system to force them to change

Call to action against attacks to our democracy. Especially with GOP influencing talks of a possibility of Trump’s third term, rampant-unqualified ICE, Trump’s actions without congressional approval, and many Trump comments where he speaks of himself as a king or makes anti-Constitutional remarks by considering canceling an election. Though I think the biggest part, that many will not say, is people are just tired of the Trump Administration in general. Especially considering his ties to Epstein

I honestly understand a lot of the concerns about his policies and the way he acts but he doesn’t act like a king by any means. If you wanted to call it no dictators I think that would be a better description. A king is a hereditary monarch that doesn’t necessarily even have any power

it’s to mock the president’s actions to basically acting like a king such as making statements to hold a 3rd term and acting without congress approval etc. the movement itself is a protest to call out those actions, because have no king and never will (that’s the hope at least)

He hasn’t made statements. He’s made jokes but not statements

Exactly. Like I thought that’s what the Fourth of July was for.

The fact that we already have the Fourth of July for celebrating not having a king for starters. The name doesn’t remotely fit what most people are there for.

The guy is trolling you do realize that right? He does it simply to get a reaction out of people because he thinks it’s hilarious and I can’t entirely disagree.

No I genuinely believe American democracy will prevail and ensure no third term will happen. Also I do genuinely believe Trump was joking about the third term. With how bad his health is. He still sucks tho ✌️

It’s not a literal king it has a deeper meaning. I think you’re just ragebaiting because you don’t support the cause not that you don’t understand what it is
