Democracy died long before January 6.

[Woodznutz]

Just track the state-by-state abolishing of the death penalty while at the same time nearly three-quarters of the population favored it. Of, by, and for the people? Don't make me laugh, my lips are chapped.

We are a republic, not a democracy.

So, January 6 actually threatened the republic? Why wasn't I told?

 

[Dekster]

So, is this 'democracy' that seems to be in danger?

Popular opinion polls have never been the basis of US policy.

People vote according to what they know about politicians and issues

People only know about politicians and issues because of the media

The media has leaned far left for over half a century or more, more and more every years.

Every academic article says the same, and also concedes it is now worse than ever before.

The media chooses our elected officials, and they all lean left, this includes the Rhinos.

Notice how the media ignores conservatives

So our “democracy” died because we don’t kill enough of our huge population of prisoners?

I’d say it died after 9/11 when the repugs gave us the DHS, TSA, Patriot Act, no knock raids, and “if you’re not with us, you’re with the terrorists”.

If the will of the people is ignored by leadership, where's the 'democracy'?

If the media is controlled by one party, where is the democracy?

Our Republic/Democracy, whatever you choose to call it, died on 7/5/16 with the Rule of Law, when Hillary was given a pass by the FBI/DOJ!

How many times must you bitchez be reminded!!

Why the only way to have democracy is to vote for one party

Didn't you know that?

Yes and also, when Obama and Hillary used the FBI/DOJ to frame Trump. And, they are STILL doing it!

Everything has a definite beginning and end.
7/5/16 IMHO was the beginning to our end!
And I haven't wavered since.
