Who Are The REAL Kings In This Drama?

Excerpts from a recent post by Ken Blackwell on facebook:

No Kings explained for people who think they're fighting fascism.

500 groups. Three billion dollars in revenue. Pre printed signs stacked and shipped before you even knew what you were supposed to be mad about.

That is not a spontaneous uprising. That is infrastructure.

That is planning. That is money. That is message discipline.

And that is what you walked into on Saturday.

You looked around, saw the crowd, saw the slogans, felt the energy, and told yourself this was democracy. “No Kings.” It sounded clean. It sounded righteous. It felt like you were part of something organic.

But the signs were ready before your outrage was.

That should bother you.

Because you are not living under a king. You are living in a constitutional republic with elections, term limits, and a press that has spent years attacking the most powerful figures in the country without consequence. No one is being arrested for calling a president a fascist. No one is being silenced for dissenting.

That is not tyranny.

And yet you are being told it is.

You are being trained to see normal functions of a country as authoritarian. Loving your country becomes suspicious. Wanting a secure border becomes immoral. Believing parents should have a say in their children’s lives becomes dangerous. Asking basic questions about elections becomes taboo.

That is not clarity. That is conditioning.

Every country on Earth enforces its borders. Most require identification to vote. That is not controversial anywhere else. It is only controversial here because you have been told it should be.

And you believed it.

Meanwhile, look at the people who actually hold power and how long they have held it:

Chuck Schumer. 46 years. Longer than Stalin.

Steny Hoyer. 45 years. Longer than Mao.

Mitch McConnell. 42 years. 5x more than Napoleon.

Nancy Pelosi. 39 years. Longer than Henry VIII.

Maxine Waters. 35 years. Longer than Mussolini.

Bernie Sanders. 35 years. Triple Hitler’s entire reign.

That is what entrenched power looks like.

Decades. Not months. Not a single term. Decades.

But you are told the threat to democracy is the outsider who disrupted that system for a brief window of time.

You are told he is the king.

No. What you are reacting to is not monarchy. It is loss of control.

You do not hate kings. You hate kings that are not yours.

Because when power consolidates on your side, you justify it.

A sitting president steps aside. Within days, a replacement is effectively crowned without a real contest, without a meaningful debate, without voters having a say in a process that is supposed to belong to them.

No primary. No debate. No ballot.

And you said nothing.
