"If you weren't part of the various "No Kings" protests happening around the country this weekend, you probably still saw that people all across America were gathering to protest President Donald Trump's continued attempts to push the U.S. into fascism under his reign. Trump, who has seemingly abandoned any efforts to obscure his fascist agenda, posted a since-deleted AI-generated video on his Truth Social account on Saturday, October 18, that showed him flying a plane over crowds of No Kings protestors and dumping literal shit on them."
"The plane has "King Trump" painted on the side, shows the guy wearing a crown, and is set to Kenny Loggins' iconic '80s rock song 'Danger Zone.' Today, Loggins has disavowed the whole thing."

Nationwide No Kings protests drew crowds opposing President Donald Trump's perceived push toward fascism. Trump posted a since-deleted AI-generated video on Truth Social depicting him flying a plane labeled "King Trump," wearing a crown, and dumping feces on protesters. The video used Kenny Loggins' 'Danger Zone' without permission. Kenny Loggins disavowed the usage, requested removal of his recording, and said he would have denied permission. Trump has a history of using music without authorization, and Loggins now joins other artists who have publicly objected to such uses.
