The nationwide "No Kings" parades are making a comeback tomorrow, so steer clear of all cities if you are easily upset by stupidity. Many misguided people who actually believe they are accomplishing something valuable by running around in crazy outfits and waving Fuck Trump signs will flood the streets for a few hours. Think of it as Mardi Gras without the alcohol.The premise of these charades is filled with loopholes. First of all, and most egregious, Donald Trump is not a "king." He does not behave like one and never has. What he does that irks all the liberals is say what he thinks in plain English, without the soaring rhetoric. This confuses the masses, who need to not understand what their leaders are saying in order to feel they are smart enough to be in charge. For this they hate him.Secondly, these costumed gatherings have absolutely no impact on strengthening our democracy or solving the country's many problems. The silly antics of the participants accomplish nothing besides creating a ton of work for the city's trash collectors the next day.
As a psychiatrist writes in today's Wall Street Journal, the "No Kings" protests are little more than group therapy for like-minded loonies, and bad group therapy at that.
