If you're going to resort to calling others here "fascist clowns", again, you should really meditate on how much of your thinking is influenced by the media you consume. You aren't actually reading and understanding; you're glancing and concluding.

I honestly don't think anything you've suggested has happened has actually happened. I don't know how to convince you of this; you might be too deep into the disillusion to be pulled out. I can at least say on "having the official government channels call him a "king"", it was an unofficial channel (Trump's personal truth social feed) where he said that; and I think a reasonable conclusion is that its a reference to the very common title "The King Of New York" (because he was speaking on NYC congestion pricing), claimed by The Notorious B.I.G, Jay-Z has called himself that, its literally the name of a movie, Trump is from New York, its just a thing people say. You might not have known that, and that's ok; some of us are here to learn, and I would encourage you to have an open mind and try to learn yourself.


Siding with the Russians over the Ukrainians has obviously happened. Same with unprecedented power grabs in the form of presidential control over congressionally mandated independent agencies.

All of this has been so widely reported by both national and international media that I argue it doesn’t require citation


You're arguing with a 40 day old account.
