Can we be honest for a moment? This isn’t a ‘No Kings’ protest. It’s a ‘We lost and we’re mad about it’ moment.
If an election had been bypassed, if ballots hadn’t been cast, if a third term were being forced through—then sure, the outrage would carry some weight. But none of that happened. The voters decided, and the result just didn’t go their way.
So what is this, really? It's not a stand for democracy, it's literally a reaction against it.
And the irony is almost too perfect: many of the same voices shouting ‘No Kings’ are from the same political machine that handed Kamala Harris a nomination without a single primary vote cast. No grassroots contest. No voter choice. Just an anointment.
It’s like losing a game fair and square, shaking hands at the buzzer and then storming back onto the court screaming the rules are illegitimate because you don’t like the scoreboard.
It’s difficult to take lectures about democracy seriously from people who seemed perfectly fine skipping it when it was convenient.
This isn’t rebellion. It’s a tantrum dressed up as principle.
And yet, if you question the election process, modern-day Democrats will call you a conspiracy theorist.
The problem is that title has developed an annoying habit of aging well.

🤣It's genuinely hilarious watching people act like Trump not out in public for a couple days is a national emergency.
For four years, Americans watched Joe Biden disappear for weeks at a time, avoid unscripted events, limit press access, and routinely vanish from public view. The media called it a "normal schedule."
Now Trump goes a few days without a public appearance and suddenly we get this? 😂
When he's making public appearances, you cry.

TDS is insane, man.
To Gavin Newsom's corrupt deep blue state:
California has the resources, technology, and budget of a global economic powerhouse. There is no reason counting votes should take longer than it does in third-world countries.
At best, it's incompetence. At worst, it's corruption.
The nation is watching a system that takes weeks to produce results, and will judge your incompetence accordingly.
To the Republican majority of the Supreme Court:
You have shown yourself willing to IGNORE precedent, even while the ink was still drying on YOUR decision insisting YOUR unprecedented intervention in an election didn’t affect that precedent.
You’ve blessed willful DEFIANCE of a valid injunction by a lower court — that YOU upheld on appeal — irreparably undermining the rule of law.
And you DIDN'T EVEN BOTHER engaging with the facts found by the lower court — IGNORING the applicable standard of review.
And YOU did it all, seemingly, to advance a partisan agenda to cement YOUR ideological goals.
But that was BEFORE votes were cast.
Can we count on you not to torch the Constitution to advance those same interests and goals if the party in power repudiates the will of the voters? What assurance are you making to instill trust in your institution?
History is watching and will judge your actions.

@ClayTravis Inexcusable? Yes.
Intentionally corrupt? Also, yes.
CA is slower at tallying votes than third world nations...
and modern day Democrats will look you dead in the eye and think you're a conspiracy theorist for losing faith in the election process.
@GavinNewsom would like you to think that the tallying takes weeks because the state is so big. When in actuality, states with 20% fewer people have results 2,000% faster.
To answer the question, it's actually both. CA is the only state capable of it being both a corrupt & competence issue simultaneously.
...and Gavin Newsom would like you to think that the tallying takes weeks because the state is so big. When in actuality, states 20% smaller have results 2,000% faster.
It's a corrupt & competence issue, not a population issue.
Literal third world nations count faster than California does.
🤣
It's genuinely hilarious watching people treat six days like a national emergency.
For four years, Americans watched Joe Biden disappear for weeks at a time, avoid unscripted events, limit press access, and routinely vanish from public view. The media called it a "normal schedule."
Now Trump goes six days without a public appearance and suddenly the internet has assembled a search party? 🤣😂
TDS is insane, man.
@SpineCrypto@EndWokeness Exactly correct.
CA has 20% more people, but is 2000% slower than Texas.
Those numbers sound made up, but CA is quite literally that incompetent/corrupt.
@Riley_Gaines_ Karen Bass and the political machine wouldn't accept it.
If the two debated, voters would start questioning why the same person/people/machine who created the problems was asking for another term to fix them.
@Douglas78883314 Exactly.

So are the mathematically impossible California vote spikes for Tom Seyer scheduled for 3 a.m. again, when everyone’s asleep?
Are we going to wake up to Steve Hilton in 3rd, or….. ?
