An earthly king with no substance. A king who has lost his vindication.

e.i.- King Saul (Old Testement, First Samuel 9) after disobeying God's orders God rejected him. and although he was still king of the israelites on earth he no longer was God's anointed king
Bush might be president but the majority of americans hate him. he is a king without a crown.
