No Kings My Ass: The Rise of Political Trust-Fund Candidates

American politics is rotting into a nursery for nepotism, and nowhere is that clearer than right here in New Hampshire and it comes from both sides of the aisle. While activists chant “No Kings,” political families quietly pass power like an inheritance—turning public office into a family trust fund.
These so-called candidates aren’t rising on merit or service; they’re being weaned straight off the system, nourished by name recognition, donor lists, and backroom connections the average citizen will never touch.
John Sununu Jr.’s Senate run is a perfect example of this rot. It’s not a grassroots movement—it’s a legacy reboot, an attempt to cash in on a last name rather than earn the job. This is not civic duty; it’s entitlement. These political nipple babies don’t fight their way in—they’re carried, protected, and fed by the very machine voters are told to distrust.
Public office was never meant to be hereditary. It was meant to be earned, temporarily held, and then relinquished. Instead, we’re watching New Hampshire—and the country—get treated like a family franchise, where insiders recycle power and call it “experience.”
No crowns, no thrones—just spoiled heirs with campaign signs, daring voters to pretend this isn’t exactly the kind of ruling-class behavior they claim to oppose.
