What is being protested?

Believe a lie, become a fool.

Having observed the recent “No Kings” protests, I find it difficult to understand the issue being protested. I seriously doubt any of the protesters have definitive reason why they follow this nonsense.

So let me attempt to parse the possible inflated reasons for this hoax. Unlike our past president who was basically inert, President Donald Trump has aggressively started dealing with issues on which he campaigned. The primary issue which has attracted criticism is the use of immigration laws which had not been enforced. The enforcement arm, ICE has been the focus as they aggressively look for illegal immigrants most with criminal records. Many false statements have been made regarding arresting legal residents and harsh conditions at ICE detention center.

The Democrat Party in its desperate search for a platform has chosen to use the attack on ICE as an issue. Some members of the party have deliberately impeded the arrest of illegals claiming their right to oversee ICE when none of these fools did any such thing under the previous administration.

If any of “No Kings” protesters can offer a written example of any action the Trump administration has taken which are not within his authority, please feel free to refute my position.
