Obama tried but his argument appeals to emotion and the hope clueless people will still believe him.
In our constitutional republic, Tuesday’s vote provides Americans our only democratic say in governance at the federal and much of the state level until the 2024 election. But rather than sell voters on why Democrats will be better representatives, the “democracy at risk” pitch pretends that electing Republicans will destroy the very democratic process the voters just engaged in. It is both silly and a circularly self-negating theory.
Democracy Isn’t on the Ballot — It is the Ballot

Democracy Isn’t At Risk, Democrats Are
A red wave will not be an end to our representative democracy. It will just be an end to the Democrat representatives.
