Dear media:
Please do not waste time hyperventilating about this dumb comment.
It’s intended to be a distraction from all of the damaging actions he’s taking.
Focus on those.

We should ABSOLUTELY let our zeal for protecting our democracy from the man who would be King lead us to OVERFUCKINGREACT in exactly this case.
I DON'T THINK THAT'S HUBRIS.
He is exactly that guy who says the quiet thing out loud just like he warned us they were going to steal the election.
You really don’t understand that?
This country used to know what to do with kings.
He's trying to normalize that idea.
The frog is being boiled.
Our Dem leaders should be screaming about how dangerous this is, not downplaying it.
He's ACTING like it. You actually could connect the two!
THAT would be effective messaging!
You better figure out what's going on!
WE, THE PEOPLE, SHOULD BE HYPERVENTILATING ABOUT THIS COMMENT.
"Oh our president just claimed to be a King in front of the whole world, but you can ignore that!"

Remind people why we don't have kings.
Every day.
Get people riled up like the republic is at stake.
Because it is.
His stance on Ukraine is horrific, dangerous, and completely must be overturned. It will have bad outcome, to actually SAVE our country

Don't you see how Trump uses anger, fear, and greed to control MAGA the GOP? Don't let him do that to you too.
trump: uses that power in all the typically bad kingly ways
trump: says he's a king
that guy: must be a distraction
If you don't recognize him testing boundaries that he will later breach, you should go take a long walk off a short pier, FFS.
Please review the Russian involvement in the 2016 election, the Mueller Report, and the vast amount of intelligence on Russian disinformation at the root of RW talking points in order to connect the dots re: Trump’s shift to Russian collaboration.
The public needs you.
It's multi-tasking.
stonk morket
Fingers crossed
a) hopelessly and dangerously naive
or
b) working for the oligarchs
how would you respond if a teenager did this shit, because that is the mentality
We need action, the courts need to check his violations of the constitution. Him and Vance- impeach now
THE HOUSE IS ON FIRE

Please start actually doing something about him instead of doing these little lectures about something you appear not to understand.
It’s a proclamation.
Just fuck on off and bitch about Egg Prices while these Nazis take away our rights like every other elected Dem.
Each action is taken with and exposes intent.
None of the actions is taken to divert attention from another but to achieve an intended goal both now and in the future.
The tactic is not to distract.
The tactic is to overwhelm.
God help us.
Meanwhile, Patel is nominated.
Instead of saying “everything is a distraction” let’s tie these details to the bigger picture and look at things comprehensively.
The demented fucker wants to be king. His demented cult wants him to be king.
This "King" thing could turned into a cudgel and used as a loud, digestible talking point for months or years. The friggin' GOP had a field day cause Obama wore a tan suit once. Trump is just handing them a headline.
It's isn't a distraction it is a harbinger of federal interference in states business on many other issues.
What fucking planet do you live on?
Take some lessons

Take him seriously. Do what you need. Stop him. You’re in a position of power, you should not be calling anyone to stand down From this tyrant.
Do your damn jobs and start calling out this fascist takeover for what it is.
The President of the US calling himself a king, and you take a pass? Get out of politics, and let true leaders lead.
Please do not waste time trying to convince people to calm down about the things Trump says.
We've learned that the Trump often means the things he says that "reasonable people" tell us to ignore as mere distractions.
That wasn't mere compliance. That was complicity.
Lots of good talking does, especially when it completely lacks the words and phrases that catch in people's brains and make a difference.
Of an electorate spoilt, lazy, willing to surrender its freedom to a few rich thugs as long as it is entertained.
You aren’t playing bridge.
This is a blood sport.
Start fighting like a Republican.
This is Normandy Beach.
This is Midway.
We're at war. Start acting as such.
Distraction or not, words matter. We should always take people at their word. He believes he’s king because he’s not stopped.
And it's amazingly easy to connect the two.
"Trump is calling himself king and taking actions such as..."
See Dan, same fucking sentence.
You stop running from these comments because it's going to get worse.
You people lose because of this thinking
Take him down physically or don't speak
Civil War is coming.
Either fight or get out of the way.
People like you should be hammering this to the media.
How is it elected Democrats are STILL caught flat-footed after all that time and evidence?
Everything he does is illegitimate because of his view of being king. Damn do we need a draft for leadership now?
He is acting like a king. He is declaring himself a king!
WTF?

And just to humor you, let's say we did prove to a lot of them that Trump actually is a bad guy. What is that going to do? Are they going to rescind their votes?
The impossible is only impossible when you stop trying to make it happen. We have another election in two years, remember?
Do your fucking job you fungus
Please stop pretending that two fascists & lackies don’t mean what they say.It’s a test run, until it’s not. If you can’t recognize the early-signs you aren’t fit to govern against this fight.
Focus on reality; he ordered charges dropped against the Mayor in exchange for harming NYC.Um?

Dan & Dems are lazy, complacent and have never fought to anything in their lives and it shows.
US doesn't universal healthcare, paid family leave, paid vacation, U pre-k, subsidized child/elder care or fast trains.
years with some bad decisions i must admit
We as Americans are too stupid, lazy, and irrational to vote or value democracy.
I want America to be ok but I know there will be heavy losses.
I don’t think Americans really know the pain and suffering that is coming.
It will be too late for the majority of Americans and the middle class.
Appeasement never works.
Be the leader. Start, or join, a local activist group. Sign on to the General Strike.
The man is insane and he is going to destroy everything we hold dear in order to have building space for condos. Gaza beware.
