Also the actual literal King of the UK has less power in the UK than Trump does in the US and is very specifically not above the law like Trump is.
Ah, well, y'see technically he's got a fuckton of power, but the deal is he doesn't use it or the monarchy is fucked. He is also quite specifically above the law.
No, he is very very VERY specifically not above the law. The trial and execution of Charles I is a pretty major point in British history. Establishing the king is not above the law and parliament is sovereign.
That is the same as not having power.
I fundamentally disagree, but also I'm not willing to argue about it.
