Republicans tried to be clever with a homophobic response to Tim Walz’s ‘No Kings’ tweet, but it quickly blew up in their orange faces

One person marking the protest day was Tim Walz, the governor of Minnesota and Kamala Harris’ vice-presidential running mate in 2024.
No kings.

This prompted the official Twitter account of the Republican Party to reply with a picture of Walz and the caption ‘No Queens’.

The GOP Twitter owner clearly thought they were being clever. Even though Walz isn’t LGBTQ+. But of course, to the MAGA cult, being called even remotely LGBTQ+ would count as the highest form of insult.
But the homophobic joke quickly backfired, in spectacular fashion.

My former party is now nothing but a cadre of juvenile idiots. There is no character, no dignity, no principle, no moral aspiration, no ideas, no ideals, no plans… nothing. It is now a vast wasteland of whining grievance and brainless trolling. Nothing more. https://t.co/HG3Bc9uTzw
