President Donald Trump<\/a> is facing criticism after telling reporters that \u2018kings don\u2019t work\u2019 during a media interview.<\/p>\n Following a weekend full of widespread and historic protests across the country<\/a> to stand up against Trump\u2019s far-right regime, the president, 79, commented on the protests titled No Kings Day. \u201cI\u2019m not a king. I work my a– off to make our country great. That\u2019s all it is. I\u2019m not a king at all,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n The clip circulated online where a viewer responded on X, \u201cKings don\u2019t work???? That\u2019s a nasty backstab to your good mate Charles<\/a>!!!\u201d The user further commented, \u201cSome Kings are his friend, he just says Kings don\u2019t work, so he is saying something bad about his friends, ie, backstabbing.\u201d<\/p>\n That remark was taken as an offense by those watching closely during Trump\u2019s recent state visit to the United Kingdom, which included a formal visit hosted by King Charles, 76.<\/p>\n From September 16 to 18 2025, Trump and First Lady Melania Trump were guests of King Charles III and Queen Camilla, attending a carriage procession at Windsor Castle, inspecting a Guard of Honour and taking part in a state banquet.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n At the banquet<\/a>, Trump praised the \u201cspecial relationship\u201d between the U.S. and the U.K., calling it \u201cirreplaceable and unbreakable.\u201d<\/p>\n During the visit, he also met British Prime Minister Keir Starmer at the country residence Chequers, where the two leaders signed agreements covering trade and investment between the two countries.<\/p>\n Given that backdrop, the phrase \u201ckings don\u2019t work\u201d was interpreted by social-media users as undermining the king, who welcomed him, leading to the \u201cbackstab\u201d accusation.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, in the United States, the protests known as the No Kings protests have been in full force. On October 18, 2025, protesters gathered in thousands of cities across the country.<\/p>\n DON’T MISS:<\/strong><\/p>\n Russia delivers major blow to Trump and Zelensky ahead of Budapest summit<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Stephen Colbert issues brutal blow to Trump over White House ballroom ‘lie’<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Stephen Colbert fumes over the ‘next pile of c–p Trump is dropping’<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Organizers estimate over 2,700 protest sites and nearly 7 million participants.
