The posts are funny, but I’d say that we should grift the right so that they get off big tech platforms and get into the fediverse.

But everyone talks about how Europe is sooooo much better than the US. And they have a king thing going on, so we should. Right?
Why are you holding a turd?
You know those are constitutional monarchies right? Their monarchs have effectively less political power than the American President by far and at best hold a symbolic role of paper stamper.
Also they have a solid history of axing them when they overstep (sometimes literally), and bringing their successors back on with further reduced function in government. These days they are basically just overpayed legacy mascots that have lucrative longstanding contracts…
Maybe America should follow suit with the rest of Europe, depose their Mad Kings and make them actual civil servants accountable to the people or just kooky sock puppets to entertain the masses with. It would be a nice change.
But Trump isn’t going to be king
He already is dipshit. American democracy is old as fuck compared to the rest of the world and an American president has undemocratic levels of power compared to most other democracies. Biden and every other President before him was also a King they just played by the expectations not to act like one.
Your system is crumbling old ass garbage half written in archaic obsolete law language. A Democracy beta test written by people who still saw the role of monarch as nessisary. The world moved on from your system a hundred years ago because they unlike you lot didn’t mythologize the writers of their documents as Gods of creation and you lot had your heads so far up your own asses you never noticed the joke you were becoming. It might have been cute once but now it’s just fucking sad.
So Trump is a king now? When did this happen. Where are the news articles proclaiming this?
You didn’t read what I wrote huh? Alright. I will keep it short so you can keep up.
It’s not Trump.
It’s every American President since the beginning. They just used to have to pretend it wasn’t true.
It’s time to grow up and become a real democracy like the rest of us.
Ok, so you hate all the presidents. I can’t help you there. Good luck with dealing with that.
Nope, who your Presidents are is kind of inconsequential at this point. The system sucks because it was written by people who figured a king was nessisary and you lot never updated it into modernity after and now it’s failed due to old age.
The only thing keeping the whole thing on the rails for as long as it did was believing in fairies. The rest of the world looked at that system and when they built their own democracies they fixed the bugs with more modern designs.
Taunt us all you like but enjoy living in a failure that progressively more people can’t believe in anymore Tinkerbell.
Well I’m having a great time, so…
You mean the King and/or Queen of England? The role that is entirely just a public display of symbolism and they have next to no real power?
Europe is indeed better than the US. Not because of monarchies, though.
But they have dealt with having kings, so must not be so mad.
The point is that turning Trump into a king won’t make your country any better. It won’t really solve anything.
Besides that, most monarchies in Europe are just constitutional monarchies, which means that the monarch does not actually influence the politics.
And that’s not really going to happen. Trump won’t be a king. It’s a joke. I know there are people who actually believe it’s happening and I am happy to laugh at them.
Now, having said that, Hail to the King, baby!!!
