If the “No Kings” rallies were meant to spark a revolution, someone left the matches in the retirement home. Instead of firebrands, the crowds mostly showed up with walkers, hearing aids, and a fresh refill of blood pressure meds.

The photos at the anti-Trump protests definitely told a story with a plethora of white-haired white folks shouting about systemic oppression from behind their $800 bifocals. A sea of entitled Boomers could be seen from coast to coast, waving signs about how oppressive the country is. Some of these folks even emerged straight out of their assisted living facilities where they are paying upward of $5,000 a month to live there (how very oppressed they are!)

The “No Kings” events on Saturday, June 14, were purposely scheduled to happen on the same day as Flag Day – and the same day as the 250th celebration parade for the Army. The Democrats, the leftist media and their supporters all trashed the Army parade in the weeks leading up to it, calling it a birthday celebration for Trump even though the Army was established on June 14, 1775, way before Trump was born. The left also gleefully celebrated that the Army parade wasn’t as well-attended as expected. Lovely people, aren’t they?!

So what did the “No Kings” protests actually achieve? Absolutely nothing – unless you count providing a group therapy session for Democrats still grieving their 2024 election loss to the Orange Menace. Judging by the turnout, it looked more like a senior social club with signs. Maybe it’s time they let go of their Trump Derangement Syndrome and embraced retirement hobbies. After all, life’s short – especially when you’re counting it in Medicare billing cycles.

On the flip side, their well-funded hissy fit did manage to spotlight a few unintended gems…

  1. It gave us endless laughs watching the Democrats roll out their new resistance squad of geriatricBoomers who looked like they wandered out of a Bingo hall and into a protest.
  2. The hypocritical Dems coughed out enough CO2 to toast a glacier – so much for that climate crisis they’re always preaching about.
  3. And let’s not forget the real kicker: they pumped a ton of cash into gas, hotels, signs, drinks, and snacks… basically turbocharging the Trump economy they claim to hate.

Let’s spotlight the truth over the hype…

So the left claims 5 million people showed up for their big June 14 “No Kings” shindig. Even if we humor that number (I don’t), that’s still less than 4% of 2024 voters in the presidential election. Translation: politically irrelevant.

This wasn’t a grassroots uprising – it was a top-down, Soros-bankrolled shuffle fest featuring walkers, wheelchairs, and enough orthopedic inserts to outfit a hospital ward. Memo to Democrat protesters: next time, skip the carbon-spewing road trip. Plant a tree. Write your rep. Leave the glaciers alone and stay cool in your cushy air-conditioned assisted living facilities.
