When a Democrat is back in the White House, I am hoping that No Kings, June 14, will continue to remind us what the Revolutionary War was about.

Supporters of democracy could gather en masse to display and reclaim the flag.

Democrats have won the next time. 'No Kings' is what the Revolutionary War was about.

We can have celebrations similar to Guy Fawks day - after all didn't Trump try to blow up Congress?
It would be a beautiful addition to Flag Day.

No bonfires though; we'd need to think of a different symbolic event - and absolutely NO TRUMP MASKS!
Maybe serve cocktail pigs in a blanket?

It would be a not so subtle reminder of what can happen to a hated king...if anyone cared to remember Louis XVI.
