Outside of typical remarks from Donald Trump, JD Vance and Mike Johnson and a Fox News report, party stayed mum
Republican voices were mostly silent as No Kings rallies and marches against Trump administration policies unfurled on Saturday, many in the spirit of a street party that countered the “hate America” depiction advanced by senior members of the party.
Instead of provocation, there were marching bands, huge banners with “we the people” references to the US constitution, and protesters wearing inflatable costumes, particularly frogs, which have emerged as a sign of resistance.
It was the third mass mobilization since Trump’s return to the White House and came against the backdrop of a government shutdown that not only has closed federal programs and services but is testing the core balance of power, as an aggressive executive confronts Congress and the courts in ways that protest organizers warn are a slide toward authoritarianism.
Buddy open your eyes!
Trump has been struggling as much as can to be a king. He’s been trying since day one!
Despite his mind controlled cult member following him blindly…. He still can’t make it happen. He keeps hitting roadblocks from us.
Yes, he’s making more progress than we’d like but you are a damn fool if you think things like the broken escalator aren’t hurting him. You’re a fool to not see he lost a lot of people already over Epstein.
You are a fool if you don’t see how someone like trump looks like a silly little baby compared to Putin or any other strong man dictator.
Looking foolish even for a moment hurts him very badly. It slows him down considerably.
The book “power broker”. The most powerful man in all of New York City (probably ever) was taken down by some moms standing in a park and blocking his bulldozer. That mother fucker battle sitting presidents and won, that guy walked all over mayors and governors, he wiped out entire neighborhoods and permentally blocked beach access to most of New York. He was a titan! He was defeated by looking foolish. He was destroyed by moms in a park. YOU CLEARLY DONT UNDERSTAND HOW DICTATORSHIPS WORK!
Sorry I can’t snap my fingers and make the world perfect for you. We are fighting against tyranny. It’s a long slow battle. Don’t discredit our wins as an attempt to stop us. We don’t buy what you’re selling.
Speed bumps, maybe, but they keep on being able to do stuff without consequence. People are still disappearing, there’s some tepid resistance from a couple centrist governors, and your economy is doing terribly yet he’s still very free to fuck around and post AI shit-bomb videos.
The only thing keeping him from anything is his own disastrous health and the “elite”, the real kings in the US are still allowed to do whatever the hell they want without any major pushback.
Let’s not get too far from the comment I replied to which was about something small being what brings it all down despite that not at all being the case. People aren’t afraid Trump, they’re afraid of the goons armed with guns that will do whatever the fuck he says and don’t give a shit that he’s a child rapist so long as they get a paycheck to go hurt people. We can post all the memes we want but at some point something has to happen about it.
Ya’ll’re acting so frickin’ tough for people that are generally regarded these days as being largely spineless. Farmers in France dumped shit on the roads when they were pissed, it doesn’t have to be violent but you better start causing problems.
