Washington: Millions of Americans took to the streets this weekend in “No Kings” demonstrations. US President Donald Trump’s reaction to the protests was dismissive and mocking. Social media posts from the president and Vice President JD Vance depicted him as a monarch, with one post imagining him flying a fighter jet labelled “KING TRUMP” over citizens. Another showed Democratic leaders kneeling before him. The posts circulated widely, signalling the president’s focus on authority and control, while drawing attention to his growing influence over public perception.

Supporters used the posts to dismiss criticism as humourless, while the images subtly conveyed the notion of Trump as untouchable and all-powerful, a message appealing to voters who favour strongman leadership.
