I don't think the "No Kings" movement is a reference to the modern British crown to the average American. It's more 17th century vibe.

I have read a comment of an American saying like "I wish Trump was a King so he could pass whatever law he wanted" like bro, most kings nowadays have merely a representative role and have little to no power

I feel like trump made a "joke" about being a king, or something, and that's where it came from?

I had no idea that a King had such little say in government.

I think they mean a king like we used to have when Henry VIII was king for example

no OUR king cannot do those things and thats true of all countries who are constitutional monarchys that isnt true for kings in general that being true for our king is a relatively new thing in our history in the grand scheme of things

indeed. And the UK has had stable democracy for hundreds of years. With our constitutional monarchy. A system of conventions and common law.

Thank you! I've been pointing out for months that the current President has taken WAY more power than a king.

There are a few absolute monarchs in this world and that is the type of king he wants to be.

we aren't saying "no kings" because of actually royal families throughout history. it's because trump thinks that's what he is. he shows that in the ai slop he throws around. has nothing to do with the British royal family

Wee Cosplayer :
The only power he has is what we call "soft power" and constitutional influence: The right to be consulted - The monarch is entitled to advise, encourage, and warn the government. Diplomacy - He plays a vital role as the diplomatic face of the nation, hosting foreign leaders, conducting state visits, and representing the UK on the world stage. National Unity - The monarch acts as a figurehead of national identity and unity, standing above party politics
