He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands.
He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries.
He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance
For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:
For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:
For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury:
For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences:
He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us

Every one of these complaints can be levied against the current occupier of the White House. Every single one. His policies on immigrants are discouraging full time immigration and even short-term vacationing which is a blow to the economy.
He illegally created an extra-legislative department that has fired thousands of people and put an end to most aid programs, leaving children to starve abroad and even here in America.
His tariffs are both bringing foreign trade to a screeching halt and forcing American citizens to pay a tax that no one wanted or needed.
He’s arresting and deporting migrants without trial or any kind of due process, most recently a two-year-old American citizen. He took away advocates for migrant children meaning that infants and toddlers are expected to defend themselves at immigration hearings.
He literally led a violent uprising in the United States Capitol. Police officers died, and where permanently injured trying to defend the building against the crowd attempting a coup. As soon as he could he pardoned all of them and called them good Americans.
But these are not charges against the modern White House. These are selected complaints, aimed at King George III, in the Declaration of Independence. When he doesn’t understand why people protest against him, it’s not “Trump derangement syndrome”, it’s that what he and his stooges are doing goes against the ideals woven into the start of this country. Why protest? Because this is what colonists were fighting against what they stood up for.
So not only is he positioning himself as the next Hitler, with concentration camps, a people to blame all of America’s problems on, attempting to control the courts, the schools, the media, threatening to keep power even when his constitutionally allowed term ends and generally taking the Constitution and wiping his ass with it, he is making himself king.
But perhaps there in lays his downfall. We’re currently commemorating the 250th anniversary of the founding of this country. They didn’t take kindly to kings in 1776 and I don’t think Americans will take kindly to one now.
