Stop using king to refer to what Trump is trying to become and use accurate terms like fascist dictator. I guarantee that Trump loves being referred to as a king and all you're doing is boosting his already massively overinflated ego.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Trump loves being referred to as a king
You're only making the point stronger.
Semantics... Pfft...
What, you believe he might dislike the term fascist dicktater...?? 🤦♀️
trump is already the fattest dicktaster
Mmm, dick taters. Yuck.
Fascist Dictator
Authoritarian Ruler
Despot
Get your terminology straight ... this isn't medieval Europe
I get it, hope and all that, but I feel like this is just inevitable. We're all going to just watch it happen and the media will mostly not fully acknowledge it for fear of losing revenue... I really don't even expect to have proper midterm elections. 2 years is a long fucking time when they're setting the stage for dictatorship in the first month.
We'll have proper midterm elections in blue states, but not red ones.
Once the Executive Branch feels as if they can be held in Contempt by the Judicial Branch and continue to act for the nation, all bets are off, and we are no longer functioning as a Constitutional Democracy. There's no law that matters, as it's no long bound by anyone able to enforce it. The very position of President no longer carries any meaning, neither does that of Congress, or The Supreme Court. When one side of the Triangle breaks, it all falls.
Right now Trump is barely a jack.
