Does anyone disagree with this? There is no longer much difference between the US president and a king. He literally has the right to simply legally kill people and congress and the judicial branch have little will or power to interrupt any of his shenanigans. I think king is a closer to correct term than president. Fascist dictator would be the closest, but I think he prefers the term king.
Remember a couple of years ago when Biden just made it illegal for rail workers to strike?
Just pointing out that this king shit didn't start with Trump, it's just gone even more off the rails.
It was under Biden that presidential immunity went out of control too. Biden effectively set the stage for the downfall of democracy.
