This is an actual picture the official White House social media account posted:
“LONG LIVE THE KING!”
–President Donald J. Trump
We’re barely one month into Trump’s presidency, and he’s already saying the quiet part out loud: he wishes he were king.
This isn’t just bluster – it’s a warning.
Trump has never hidden his admiration for dictators. Now, with the full power of the presidency in his hands, he’s making it clear he sees himself as a king, not an elected official accountable to the people.
If this is what he’s saying now, imagine what’s next. Will he try to undermine the courts? Ignore Congress?
