let me try to help you out.

1. my "so-called" sarcasm is clearly sarcasm because we all know the United States has no king. So me saying "we still don't have a king" is, indeed, sarcasm.

2. Social media is a cesspool and I very rarely use it. It seems you live there. 

3. Was the purpose of the rallies not to protest against the perceived threat of a king, and supposed authoritarianism of a president you don't like? I fully understand the proposed purpose of these rallies, I am simply challenging the validity of them. I am further suggesting that the continual liberal rhetoric of king, hitler, threat to democracy, etc is far more central to this idea than anything the president has actually done. 

Once again, not an actual king, which is the point many folks keep missing or being intentionally obtuse with this Straw Man mischaracterization.

Why couldn't they just vote? What are they actually protesting?

Speaking of obtuse I guess you didn’t read the complete sentence you bothered to bold or you would have read the words “perceived threat of…”

Again the protests were not against the "perceived threat" of an actual king and your repeated attempts to mischaracterize it doesn't change the facts as to what the marches were about.

I thought this was pretty good:

TL/DW:

1) LOL at Fox News complaining about “old white people complaining about stuff”

2) Trump isn’t a King, but he’s “king-adjacent,” and some of the stuff he’s done is eerily similar to some of the complaints from the Declaration of Independence.

3) Calling Trump a King is actually a downgrade from what much of MAGA thinks of him as: a God (look no further than the “Father Trump” thread here)

It’s a shame the thread created to fact check the OP was deleted.  Lots of blatant falsehoods being pushed in this thread.

King Shumer still holding the country hostage. Fetterman wants him ousted.

Republicans could end this today if they wanted.  Calling Schumer a king is ridiculous.

So when you said there was no violence you were lying.  Got it.

Your entire persona is asking stupid questions just so you can try and find silly exceptions. 

You would take your kids to see All dogs go to heaven and get in an argument with the guy behind the popcorn counter because you were like "Really? All dogs. What about pit bulls that attacked kids?"

Democrats are, to my surprise, winning this battle. 
On November 1st the new ACA premiums will lock into place. At that point Republicans may want to surrender. If they don’t it’s only going to get worse for them.

I feel good knowing I have made your life better and that you had fond memories of this post. I mean you write stuff on the internet and you dont expect that people will really even pay attention to it. But to have a post really stick with a person like this...you are welcome. 

Thanks for bumping it so everybody can read it again.

You are welcome for brightening your day.  I noticed you didn’t call out Strike for doing the same thing you accuse me of doing.

Strike doesn't do it with literally every single post. Every single post. No exceptions. Not a single exception. 

If he was like you, we would all hate him too.

The "No Kings" protests appear to have been local demonstrations, with reports of "thousands rally at 'No Kings' demonstrations across US" and "No Kings Day 2.0' rally brings out thousands in Charlottesville".

What if he went to Burger King and put on a paper King crown? And if there was a picture of him wearing it?  Yeah, think about that.

I know you’re trying to troll me into pointing out an exception, so I won’t.

I am curious of your thoughts on the additional evidence of Halligan’s stupidity and unprofessionalism in the Letitia James thread though.

This intense flattery and hero worship is kinda weird man.

You will just have to take the blessings as they come. Take a deep breath. My thoughts arent that important, even though they may seem to be when your brain is mush.

AMENCANIGETAHALLELUJAH!

From the Declaration of Independence, referencing the king against which we were about to rebel:

Quote

He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.

He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.

He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power.

He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:

For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:

For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:

For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:

For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury:

For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences:

He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us
