John,

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?

We need to be ready for whatever comes next, and that’s why we’re hoping you’ll chip in $20 to the DASS Legal Fund today. Your support – right now – will help us defend democracy and the rule of law.
