Trump could start wearing a crown and carrying a sceptre, and people would still be in denial about what's happening. - ThreadSky

Wrong. People wouldn't deny it. Republicans would.

Kings do not have the power to issue “executive orders”.
They have to act in accordance with laws written by an elected assembly.
This was established in England in 1649 when King Charles was executed.
The republic that followed degenerated quickly into a dictatorship with Parliament abolished

Don't take him too literally. What he actually means is the resurrection of Jesus.

He’s the king in the same sense that Charles is the King of England: largely a ceremonial figurehead with no real involvement in the governing of the country.

reply

susanjrobinson.bsky.social•3 days ago

No. King Charles is an actual King of the United Kingdom and 14 other nations. It may be a largely ceremonial role but he is a King nonetheless. Trump is not a King. He is president of a republic.
No doubt he wants to be a king. He is delusional.

I don’t think that they would be in denial-I think they would be embracing and celebrating it. His followers would start dressing like King George from Hamilton.

Hopefully Churchill is still right about how Americans would act. Because it's still incredible quiet in America, no Congress, no "powerful" American institution, no anything protecting freedom and democracy.

Apart from the dangers - it’s objectively a fascinating experiment in the strength of the US republic, its institutions and constitution. Will 300 year old checks and balances prevail. I predict rethinks in US governance either way. Slavish obedience to an Enlightenment document has its limits.

He could have pivoted mid-tweet to excitement over Charles's state visit plans. He doesn't have the attention span for me to be 100% confident that 2 sentences in a row are actually related in any way.
