No Kings Are Election Deniers
I had a conversation last week with someone who didn’t vote for the current President. They were excited about the upcoming “No Kings” rally and asked if I was attending. I said, “No thanks, July 4th is already our No Kings Day.” They looked at me confused, like most Democrats who don’t even realize what they are.
They are election deniers. No Kings = Election Deniers.
President Trump was elected by over half the people in this country, winning both the popular vote and the electoral vote in one of the most examined, attacked, and scrutinized elections in American history. He is the legally elected President of the United States. We live in a Constitutional Republic, not a cable news, manufactured “democracy” ruled by emotional mobs and media hysteria.
So, I pointed out the obvious: if Trump won the election and you’re protesting the President who was elected by the people, what does that make you? That’s right, an election denier. The “No Kings” movement is nothing more than a public emotional breakdown over losing an election. Instead of accepting democratic results, they scream, riot, censor, threaten, boycott, vandalize, and sue.
I told them they don’t have to like Trump, but he is our president, just as Biden and Obama were our presidents. Conservatives didn’t burn cities, shut down highways, or hold weekly organized tantrums across America when they were elected. Why do Democrats behave like self-entitled children every time they don’t get their way?
This country is not run by a king. We have three branches of government and publicly elected officials. The peaceful transfer of power is the foundation of this Republic. Yet these protesters claim they are “protecting democracy” while refusing to accept the results of an election.
They Don’t Hate Kings; They Just Hate Losing
Their next excuse: “Trump is a threat to democracy.” Really? The only president in decades who didn’t start any new wars? The only president to bring peace among hostile nations and bring troops home? The truth is, the No Kings crowd is the threat to democracy, they refuse to accept any election they lose.
Then came their favorite smear: “He’s a criminal!” Really? So, what, he is the lawfully elected president, get over it. But, if that were true, don’t you think they would have proven it in a meaningful court case by now? Trump has been investigated more than any president in U.S. history. I told them I’m grateful Democrats sued him over 34 times in four years, because with each case, they only exposed their own corruption and proved Trump clean. Nixon faced only 6 lawsuits.
The Democrats also filed 144 injunctions against the Trump administration, Barack Obama had only 19. Trump has been tested legally more than any president in history; and every time, he followed the Constitution. He obeyed court orders. He played by the rules. The most investigated president in history is also the most proven innocent. Democrats proved it themselves in court.
So, I asked again, “What has Trump actually done that makes you think he’s a dictator?”
Their answer? “He’s deporting every immigrant!” Wrong. He’s deporting illegal immigrants, just like Clinton and Obama did. Both Clinton and Obama deported over 17 million illegal aliens combined. Where were the Democrat protests then? Silence.
Suddenly they defend criminals, people breaking US Laws, because Trump is enforcing the law. He is using Clinton’s 1996 immigration law to expedite deportations of criminal illegals. When I asked them to name a single U.S. citizen Trump deported, they had no answer, just another tantrum.
Then the truth accidentally slipped out. They said, “Prop 50 is our chance to counter what Texas is doing so we can get more Democrat seats in Congress.” That’s it, real election interference. Democrats openly admit it. Proposition 50 is a $282 million taxpayer-funded scheme to redraw congressional districts in California to guarantee more Democrat seats.
That Isn’t Governing; That’s Rigging an Election
ABC10 reported that the Prop 50 special election will cost Californians $282 million. Even left-wing CalMatters admits the real purpose is securing Democrat power. Democrats are openly trying to eliminate Republican representation in California. These are the same people who scream about “threats to democracy.”
These are the same people who:
– Filed 144 injunctions to block a president from doing his job
– Censor Americans on social media
– Weaponized the FBI and DOJ. Yes Democrats started attacking political opponents long ago.
– Tried to bankrupt a political opponent through lawfare
– Attempted to remove Trump from ballots
– Are changing election maps to steal congressional seats
Now I say it out loud, Democrats have been using the Government and taxpayer money to attack political opponents.
Tell me again, who are the real authoritarians?
Newsom is a Walking Emotional Breakdown
Nobody throws tantrums like Gavin Newsom. When Democrats don’t get their way, they – like Governor Newsom – don’t debate; they lie, threaten, and punish. When Trump linked federal funding to federal law, ending taxpayer money for schools pushing transgender ideology, hiding gender transitions from parents, and giving priority to illegal immigrants over American citizens, Newsom exploded.
He threatened to strip California state funding from schools like USC that follow federal law rather than his political agenda. That isn’t leadership, that’s extortion. Quid Pro Joe would be proud. After all, Joe Biden withheld $1 billion from Ukraine unless they fired the prosecutor investigating Hunter Biden and Burisma. Newsom is now using the same quid pro quo tactic against American schools: obey me or lose money.
Then came his biggest meltdown.
When the U.S. Marine Corps announced its 250th anniversary celebration at Camp Pendleton, with President Trump attending, Newsom threatened to shut down Interstate 5, one of the busiest highways on the West Coast. Why? Because Trump was going to be honored by the Marines. That is pure political vengeance, not public safety.
You can’t make this up. Camp Pendleton has been holding live-fire training since the 1940s and is the largest military training base in the United States. No issue, no closures, no problems, ever. But Trump shows up, and Newsom suddenly pretends Marines firing blanks on a secured base is a threat to public safety?
The Marine Corps immediately clarified:
– The event was fully contained and safe
– No public risk
– No freeway closures needed
Didn’t matter to Newsom. Just like every Democrat infected with Trump Derangement Syndrome, he used fear as a weapon. The same governor who told Californians to stay home during COVID while he dined maskless at The French Laundry is now pretending a Marine Corps ceremony is dangerous.
Democrats Don’t Hate Tyranny; They Just Want Their Tyranny
They don’t hate kings. They want a king, but it must be a Democrat king: one-party rule forever.
Everything they accuse Trump of, they are guilty of.
They scream “dictator”, while jailing political opponents.
They scream “election interference”, while redrawing maps to rig districts.
They scream “fascism”, while censoring speech.
They scream “protect democracy”, while silencing half the country.
They scream “protect children”, while chemically castrating them without parental consent.
They scream “No Kings”, but worship government power like a religion.
Democrats aren’t resisting tyranny; they are enforcing it.
The “No Kings” Movement is a Fraud
You don’t get to deny election results, sue your opponent 34 times, attempt to bankrupt him, file 144 injunctions to block a presidency, censor your opposition, blacklist citizens, threaten schools, control speech, spy on political opponents and then pretend you’re “defending democracy.”
Sorry. That’s not how America works.
No Kings = Election Denial.
No Kings = Political Tantrum.
No Kings = Authoritarian Hypocrisy.
And we’re done pretending otherwise.

Thank you, Brian. While I won’t end a friendship over someone voting yes on 50 (although I’ve had friends end theirs with me over it and my own Substack today is about how friendship should not be ruined by politics) — I wish the people in this beautiful state would wake up from their dream of still being a young hippie Democrat in the 60s and 70s, giving it to The Man and celebrating peace, love and understanding. Because we ain’t there anymore. That dream was co-opted and turned into a nightmare. If you want peace, love and understanding and true democracy - vote NO on Prop 50!
Great read!
It continually blows (what remains of) my mind that so many Californians seem oblivious to the damage Newsom and company continue to perpetrate on our beloved state.
