Comedian Tim Allen criticized lawmakers who attended King Charles III’s address to Congress this week while also participating in protests opposing President Donald Trump, as reported by Fox News.

King Charles III delivered a speech on Tuesday to a joint session of Congress, marking his first address as monarch. Following the event, Allen posted a reaction on X, pointing to what he described as a contradiction between the speech and the recent “No Kings” demonstrations.

"Would have been funny to see the facial reactions of an actual King with a no Kings parade yelling at him," Allen wrote, sharing a photo from the address.

Allen’s post generated tens of thousands of views, with users responding to the comparison. Some highlighted the contrast between opposition to perceived executive power and attendance at a speech by a reigning monarch.

"The party chanting ‘no kings’ was clamoring to stand in ovation of a real King," one user wrote. Another added, "The democrats give an actual king a standing ovation. The irony."

Greg Steube, a Republican lawmaker from Florida, also commented on the situation in a separate post.

"I was on my way to hear an actual King speak… Funny how the ‘No Kings’ crowd is nowhere to be found. Guess the outrage depends on who’s talking?" Steube wrote.

The official White House X account joined in by posting an image of President Trump with King Charles alongside the caption, "TWO KINGS."

The discussion follows the rise of the “No Kings” protest movement, which gained national attention in 2026. Demonstrations, including a large march on March 28, drew participants across the country.

Organizers of the movement argue that President Trump has exercised authority in a manner they view as excessive, citing his immigration policies and the use of federal agents in major cities.

Among the Democratic lawmakers present at King Charles’ address was Ilhan Omar. Omar attended the event and took photographs during the proceedings. Social media users noted that she had also spoken at a “No Kings” rally at the Minnesota State Capitol weeks earlier.

President Trump has rejected claims that he has acted like a monarch. In an interview with CBS’ “60 Minutes” shortly before the royal visit, Trump told reporter Norah O'Donnell, "I'm not a king. What I am, if I was a king, I wouldn't be dealing with you."

Allen, known for roles in television and film, including “Home Improvement” and the “Toy Story” franchise, has occasionally commented on cultural and political topics. Earlier this year, he shared on X that he had completed a 13-month reading of the Bible.

"Humbled, enlightened, and amazed at what I read and what I learned. I will rest and meditate on so much. I will begin it again," Allen wrote at the time.

The response to King Charles’ address and the reaction from public figures and lawmakers continued to circulate online following the event, drawing attention to the intersection of political messaging and public appearances involving international figures.
