Why won't anyone tell me what king we're protesting?

[seeyounexttuesday]

I keep seeing all these posters for "no kings" protests. Is it King Charles? King Louis VI? King Philippe? Burger King? Is this a McDonalds sponsored protest?

You did it! I woke up Sunday and there were no kings in America!

[FunkyMonkee]

I don't get it, either! we already did away with the monarchy system here 249 years ago!! That's WHY we're American!! We don't HAVE or want any kings!! And NOBODY'S TRYING to be king, at least no one on the right.
The left are insanely racist so, maybe it's Martin Luther King they're talking about!! Maybe they just don't like James Brown and refuse to buy any of his records that were on the King label. But, I don't hear then saying, "No Polydor" or, "No People", the other two labels he was on after leaving King.

[Syntosi]

Stephen Miller said that Trump had plenary power. Since you might not know what that word means, it means he thinks Trump is king of USA.

[FunkyMonkee]

@Syntosi I seem to recall a little over a decade ago people saying that Barry Soetoro could easily make himself a king and never leave office.
Also, if Trump wanted to make himself a king, he would've done it the first time he was in office! And, it's been 9 months, now and he still hasn't made himself king or shown any signs of wanting to be! Just because a bunch of loony lefties CLAIM he's gonna be king, doesn't make it so!! It's THEIR idea and THEY ARE DELUSIONAL!!

[seeyounexttuesday]

In United States constitutional law, plenary power is a power that has been granted to a body or person in absolute terms, with no review of or limitations upon the exercise of that power. The assignment of a plenary power to one body divests all other bodies from the right to exercise that power, where not otherwise entitled. Plenary powers are not subject to judicial review in a particular instance or in general.

Weird that this definition mentions constitutional power, maybe it's syntosi who doesn't understand the definition.

[Syntosi]

Trump tried to make himself king the first time in office. January 6th comes to mind and the fake elector scheme. He is just incompetent and failed.

Trump has also tried to make himself king this time around as well such as building his paramilitary organization in ICE, crippling government institutions and undermining any checks to his power. He also had his family buy up the private corporation that builds the voting machines so that he can use that during the next election.

[Syntosi]

@seeyounexttuesday
Good boy. And what is a person that has "a power that has been granted to a body or person in absolute terms, with no review of or limitations upon the exercise of that power."?

[seeyounexttuesday]

@Syntosi In United States constitutional law, plenary power is a power that has been granted to a body or person in absolute terms, with no review of or limitations upon the exercise of that power.

[Syntosi]

And if Trump is given the power over the country in absolute terms, with no review or limitations, then what is that equal to?

[seeyounexttuesday]

@Syntosi power that the Constitution grants him?

[Syntosi]

Try again.

[FunkyMonkee]

@Syntosi Sure he did!
Jan. 6th was nothing more than him standing up for his right to have the election investigated as it was massively fraudulent!
It was the antifa crowd that started all the shit that day!! Except for maybe a couple that got riled up by antifa, the Trump supporters were all quite civil and calm!! So, HOW does that make him king, again?
Let's see, just in THIS term in the past 9 months he's put an end to NINE wars in other countries!! He's brought prices down dramatically, he's seen to it that government employes continue to get paid even though the democrats want the government shut down. Yeah, that sounds quite failed and incompetent to me!! Especially seeing as how Joey, Skamala and Barry couldn't do any of that!!
You're only proving me right!! You ARE delusional!! THERE IS NO PARLAIMENT IN AMERICA!!! EVEN THE BAND BROKE UP DECADES AGO!!

[Syntosi]

The constitution grants basically no plenary power to anyone because its primarily built on overlapping responsibilities and limitations to prevent power overreach. Like a branch overpowering or infringing on the authority of another. Like Trumps administration messing with the US finances which is in the domain of the legislature.

Furthermore, Stephen Miller was talking about plenary authority in regards to Trump explicitly breaking the ruling of a judge and violating state rights among other things. This is a clear breech of the powers granted by the constitution and arguing for plenary power in this context means supreme power over the nation AND the constitution.

[FunkyMonkee]

@Syntosi YYYYYAAAAAAWWWWWWNNNNNN.

[Syntosi]

Yes, yes. You are definitely mature enough to have a serious grown up conversation.

[FunkyMonkee]

@Syntosi Yes. Too bad you aren't. People with working adult brains already know all that bullshit you spew is garbage.

[Syntosi]

People with working adult brains are not right wing so I think that precludes you.

[FunkyMonkee]

@Syntosi Change that to "left wing" and you've got it!!

[Syntosi]

What a schoolyard response.

[FunkyMonkee]

@Syntosi I was trying to talk down to your level.

[Syntosi]

Rookie mistake. I never lowered myself to your level.

[FunkyMonkee]

@Syntosi Because you'd be going backwards.

[Syntosi]

That literally does not even make any sense. Good job.

[FunkyMonkee]

@Syntosi Thank you!! I've found that it's REALLY easy to confuse lefties! Especially if I use facts and logic!! Nice to see that, finally, my work is done, here!

[Syntosi]

Putting a sentence through 100 different language translations and outputting the word vomit would confuse anyone.

[FunkyMonkee]

@Syntosi Well, then, I won't do that to you. Your brain probably hurts enough.

[Syntosi]

Trying to understand the mindset of an idiot is indeed a struggle.

[FunkyMonkee]

@Syntosi Yeah, it is! But, I'm trying.

[Syntosi]

I know you can't help your condition.

[FunkyMonkee]

@Syntosi It CAN sometimes be a bother with a borderline genius IQ like mine to have to deal with immature inbreds like you but, sometimes, I just can't help myself.

[Syntosi]

Which is why you struggle with such concepts like plenary power.

[FunkyMonkee]

@Syntosi Which never happened.

[Syntosi]

So you have memory problems too?

[FunkyMonkee]

@Syntosi Yeah, I'm trying to forget all about you but I just can't seem to shake it!! It's kinda like having a real bad case of the stomach flu and you just can't make it into the house quick enough to use the bathroom so, you are forced to let go on the sidewalk figuring you can hose it away, later and then, no matter what you do, that shit stain will always be there.

[Syntosi]

Sounds like I am living rent-free in your head then. Shame.

[FunkyMonkee]

@Syntosi Guess again!! It's the other way around! YOU'RE the one that refuses to stop talking to me! It's like a painful rectal itch that just doesn't go away!! I get rid of it but it keeps coming back!!

[beefcakebradybatson]

How come nobody told Trump America split from Britain because it didn't want a king?

[seeyounexttuesday]

@beefcakebradybatson bro the protests were a success, didn’t you hear? We woke up Sunday and the US did not have a king! HURRAH!

[FunkyMonkee]

@beefcakebradybatson I seriously doubt anybody had to!! It's OBVIOUSLY YOU people that didn't understand that!!

[beefcakebradybatson]

The right consists of white supremacists, homophobes, xenophobes, misogynists, anti-science crackpots and other such great humans.

[seeyounexttuesday]

@beefcakebradybatson wow you know all the lefty words. here's a cookie.

[beefcakebradybatson]

"Lefty words?" Such as compassion, decency, respect for others, acceptance? GUILTY AS CHARGED, BOY-O!!!

[seeyounexttuesday]

@beefcakebradybatson bahahahahahaha. Yeah you know the words, but your actions certainly are the exact opposite.

[FunkyMonkee]

@beefcakebradybatson Is that why you democrats started the KKK and then we republicans had to step in and stop you from treating blacks like shit?
Right!! Homophobes that have loads of gay and trans friends!!
I've never hit a woman or treated her like shit but I've seen LOADS of you, do it!!!
You don't know the MEANING of the word, "science"!!

[FunkyMonkee]

@beefcakebradybatson Compassion, while destroying someone else's car, home and life!!
Decency, while jiggling your naked dick in front of a toddler's face in public!!
Respect, while destroying cities, stealing from stores, tearing down statues and spraying graffiti all over anything that doesn't move!!
Acceptance, while killing people with a different opinion or for wearing a hat you don't like!!
YOU BET YOUR FUCKING ASS, GUILTY AS CHARGED!!!

[Chazmatazz269]

It’s ironic that the same idiots participating in “No Kings” protests were quite happy to have their democratic rights to elect their candidate stolen from them and then be told who to vote for.
Only the modern left is a threat to democracy. If they don’t want any kings, or queens, should have demanded their cult leaders implement a vote to determine their candidate. But they don’t really want that. They just want THEIR dictator at the helm.

[PretzelBeanie]

It's protesting someone who wants to be a king and who is acting like a king (by breaking and ignoring laws and rulings meant to restrict his power and keep him accountable to the rest of the government and the voters).

You can call it hyperbole, but I think it's better to get ahead of these things and clearly say "we do not want this." It's much easier to stop something from happening than to try to undo it once it's already done, right?

[seeyounexttuesday]

So you're protesting no one in current office in America? Some weirdo that claims he's a king walking the streets of San Fran?

And what do you mean "we don't want this"? The majority of the country voted for Trump based on his policies. And he's doing the will of the people by getting rid of illegals and government waste.

[PretzelBeanie]

Lol so you do know exactly who this is about.

[seeyounexttuesday]

Trump’s the only one as president right now. yeah , people know this. I am not sure why you emotional toddlers are protesting something that doesn’t exist.

[PretzelBeanie]

I didn't say president. I said someone who wants to be a king and is ignoring the law to act like one. That's what is being protested.

[FunkyMonkee]

I don't know of anybody not on the left that wants to be king.
What laws are being broken? Certainly not those of the Constitution. They're being followed to the T!! EXCEPTR, OF COURSE, by those on the left who have been breaking laws left and right for decades and get NO punishment for any of it!! Why? Because "no one (but the left) is above the law!!"
Funny how when it was Joe breaking laws left and right, no one on the left saw any of it or gave even half a shit about it!!
I call it, hyperbullshit.

[PretzelBeanie]

@FunkyMonkee who on the left wants to be king? I will start keeping tabs on them in case they actually try to start acting like one. In the meantime, here's a list of challenges to the administration's actions (mostly executive orders) on account of them being unjust or just flat illegal. Feel free to peruse. www.justsecurity.org/.../

[FunkyMonkee]

And, who might that be?

[FunkyMonkee]

Pick one!!
START acting like one? They ALREADY started at least a decade ago!! Telling us what words we can and can't use, smiting people for not wearing the right clothes, making various forms of media from the past cater to THEIR whims instead of just leaving them as they originally were, banning books for all kinds of crazy reasons!! It's been a cross between "1984", "Fahrenheit 451" and "THX-1138" for the past 20-some years!!

[FunkyMonkee]

Sounds like it's ALL a load of made up democrat bullshit! Nothing worth the time or the money wasted on it!

[midnightmoon05]

They just like to make shit up! They have no idea the role of kings and queens in a monarchy society.

If these people can actually use their brain properly, we would have a much stable/functional society.

[DrPepper12]

Relax princess

[seeyounexttuesday]

@DrPepper12 are you being sexist?

[DrPepper12]

Yes. Why? I'm not some mindless MAGA drone who can't understand the difference between social vs legal mores/laws. Grow a pair and don't be so sensitive princess 😜

[seeyounexttuesday]

@DrPepper12 that’s not very liberal of you

[Tamera952]

King Cankles of course! CANKLES VON TACO TITS? His royal highness, ORNAGETURD. Ya know, …. DARTH DOTARD? AKA:PRESIDENT PEDO……PRESIDENT PUSSY-GRABBER.
You know the one.

[seeyounexttuesday]

Is that from some anime you watch or something? I’ve never heard of those people.

[David318578]

Your first mistake is trying to find logic with the modern day liberal.

[exitseven]

I bet id yyu asked ten different paid protesters this question you would get ten different answers.

[DrPepper12]

Still waiting for that money... Maybe they need a W2? I don't know... 🤔

[DrPepper12]

Sure! It's King DildoDon the First of his name, pedo protector, farmer slayer, maiden raper & spawn of hell.

[Anonymous]

I hope it's Stephen King. That guy's an ass clown.

[seeyounexttuesday]

That's a good one to protest.

[FunkyMonkee]

I agree!! Not a very good writer, either!! At least not of his chosen genre!! His stories are pretty boring!!

[RandomGirl42]

@FunkyMonkee I love Stephen King! 🤡

[FunkyMonkee]

@RandomGirl42 I'm sorry.

[noohair]

They are morons. If we had an absolute king the protest would be illegal.
