No Kings is about chaos and communism, not the Constitution

This past weekend many Americans may have thought the circus was in town, but it was just the annual “No Kings” protest. With most participants in some kind of costume, there was a Halloween theme with folks dressed as frogs and “furries,” a loud LGBTQ+ presence with a lot of leather and nudity, and a geriatric cruise vibe with a lot of old white women dancing and singing badly. These sloppy malcontent mobs claimed to be protesting “No Kings” and upholding the Constitution, but really all the crowds were there to spread chaos and stump for communism.

According to news sources, some 500 groups supposedly supported by $3 billion organized some 3,000 “No Kings” demonstrations around the nation. That’s not spontaneous but rather ordered and bought. The disingenuousness was inescapable. Celebrities and politicians just regurgitated the same tired hackneyed hate of President Trump, clueless hired protesters could not explain why they were there, and sincerely disturbed people sputtered all manner of nonsense. The protest slogans were absurd and immature and the speeches abjectly wrong and even insane, but do not be fooled by the crazy and silly – the vehicle is chaos and the destination is communism.

It’s hard to take these very weird people seriously. Their theme is “No Kings,” but they were incensed when Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro was arrested and mourned when Iranian despot Ayatollah Khamenei was killed. Ostensibly against one man having too much power, these are the same loons that voted in New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani who famously ran on taking over the means of production and making everything free for his voters.

The “No Kings” crowd screams that everything Trump does is unconstitutional but cannot name one thing that might be unconstitutional. It’s also lost on these mental midgets that if Trump was truly a king, they would not be allowed to bore us with their tedious and sometimes violent protests. The other glaring irony is that the Democrat leadership has all been in office for decades and some over half century, but the guy with barely 5 years in office is the threat?!

Irrational and offensive, these protests and protesters are intended to aggravate the American people into believing there will only be chaos until Trump is removed and Democrats restore the Constitution. Yes, the first goal is to vanquish Trump but the ultimate goal is not the constitution; it is most assuredly communism.

Among all the foreign flags for Palestine, Cuba, and Iran (all totalitarian states), the Soviet Hammer and Sickle were ubiquitous. The Democrat Party has been hijacked by their left wing, so the No Kings nut cases are their base, and Democrats are now unabashed communists.

Some may wonder if “communist” is accurate or too harsh. Democrats’ leading cheer leader avowed socialist and Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders is incessantly scolding Americans we must preserve our “democracy,” but that’s purposely misleading. The United States is a Constitutional Republic and definitely NOT a democracy. The founders loathed a democracy because it’s quite simply mob rule, so if the blue cities vote to confiscate the property of the red states, we will have no recourse.

Sanders and Mamdani are communists because they believe the government should control and own everything. Quite the irony that the No Kings crowd wants to concentrate power.

We dismiss the “No Kings” militant leftists at the peril of our Constitutional Republic. Normal hard-working Americans cannot imagine these people have any credibility much less a following, but these radicalized Democrats routinely demonstrating also regularly vote. And their bizarre antics are designed to make the chaos seem inevitable and voting futile, so you will stay home on election day.

The “No Kings” gang is absolutely obsessed with toppling Trump not because he is a king, but because he is the most formidable obstacle to dismantling our republic and imposing socialism. Trump is term limited and will leave office in less than three years, but that will not satisfy Democrats. They will not relent until they have achieved irresistible unassailable perpetual power and can finally force socialism on us.

Remember the “No Kings” lunatics this November and vote out every Democrat to save our Constitutional Republic.
