Donald Trump Jr. Insists His Dad Doesn't Act Like a King

Donald Trump Jr. was called out for the claims he made about his dad, President Donald Trump, not acting like a king.
Don Jr. claimed it was only Democrats who objected to the renovations and said the things the political party has been stating are "meaningless."
"They’re talking about having a No Kings protest. And, you know, congratulations, guys, you won. We don’t have kings," he said.

Donald Trump Jr. Refers to President Trump Assassination Attempts

Donald Trump Jr. weirdly claimed that if his dad was a king he 'wouldn’t have allowed' someone to try and assassinate him.
"Someone, by the way, who, if he was a king, probably would just reopen the government, but it hasn’t worked that way," the "Triggered" podcast host continued, referring to the ongoing government shutdown.
"If he was a king, he probably would have never left the office the first time. If he was a king, he wouldn’t allow his government to prosecute and persecute him, and he certainly wouldn’t have allowed people to assassinate him or try to at least twice," he added. "So this is just the usual Democrat nonsense."

Trump Jr. defended the POTUS' decision to renovate the White House to construct a pricey ballroom.
"This is privately funded by him and others," the businessman noted of the ballroom renovation. "It's not costing the American taxpayer a dime."
Some of his words were deemed hypocritical, as when Donald wasn't elected president in 2020, he was accused of instigating the infamous January 6 riots at the Capitol. Others were confused by his assassination remarks.
The First Son Gets Dragged by Social Media Users

The first son was labeled 'brainless' and 'mentally disturbed' for his comments.
"'The president encouraged a mob of supporters who violently invaded the Capitol and attacked police officers in an attempt to overturn the 2020 election.' <---This article. FACTS! Maga are knuckle dragging luzers [sic]!" one critic wrote, while another admitted, "Me thinks [sic] the Trumps are mentally disturbed….all of them."
"Why do the brainless goobs on the right struggle so much with the word 'landslide?' It does not mean what they think it means," stated a third.
The POTUS himself reacted to the rallies by declaring to a reporter, "I’m not a king. I work my a-- off to make our country great. That’s all it is. I’m not a king at all."
