The Republican Party is making China and Russia look correct.

[ElmerMudd]

China and Russia,, both autocracies, say democracies do not work. Iran and many Arab countries say the same.
The Republican Party is making it look thy may be right.
The USA must rise above the dysfunction of the Republican Party and prove to the world that democracies work.

I agree Vote Democratic to get things done.

So you are praising China and Russia.


Interesting. I guess that makes you a traitor then, doesn’t it?

You mean the "Democracies" like, The Democratic People's Republic of Korea?!
It sure sounds friendly and like a place one would like to live, where the majority of the public works together to accomplish their goals.
Of course, the citizens of that fun country MUST do EXACTLY what their government overlords tell them to do, or it's death to them and their family. A place where starvation is the norm and those that do manage to successfully flee the country, are consistent in their horror stories.
Even Bernie Sanders warned the government to "not" eliminate the multi-party system. All one-party only governments have the following in common: authoritarian, oppressive, persecutory, tyrannical and outright murderous to its own people. The Republican Party (founded to end slavery) is in some disarray because a number of them are RINO's and onboard with the Globalist World Economic Forum's, New World Order, free movement of peoples, no nation borders, Communist agenda.

What is your perspective on the issue?

Absolutely not. I do not want an autocracy. MAGA and Trump are trying to turn our country into an autocracy. They refuse to play by the rules of a democracy. Majority should rule. That is not happening with Republicans in the house.

The Republicans are the majority in the House. Yet you lefties want Dollar Store Obama to usurp the Speaker seat.

So spare us the “autocracy” crap.

Our Founders knew that democracies do not work.

This board is a close attempt at being democratic.
Which is surely proof in itself that the notion of Democracy is a quaint relic, because it simply does not work productively in terms of efficiency or effectiveness .
In the larger picture , the US brilliantly supports that type of conclusion right now .Other brands available .

We know that 90% of people are not very bright in IQ terms and around 70% are Gullible . Why give them an automatic right to speak for anybody other than themselves?

For what purpose?
To achieve what positive and useful end result ?
Of course you next have to face up to the danger of becoming Fascist but that is a later and consequent discussion area. imho.

“China and Russia,, both autocracies, say democracies do not work. Iran and many Arab countries say the same.”

Republicans say the same thing – they have nothing but contempt for democracy.

Republicans believe democracy to be ‘messy’ and ‘unpredictable’ – the purview of ‘mob rule.’

Hence the right’s efforts or overturn elections, disenfranchise voters, and undermine our democratic institutions.

Republicans support the republic, as the Constitution lays it out. How is that confusing or autocratic? This whole thread comes off as liberal whiners using words they don't know the meaning of.

What does Obama have to do with the Republicans not being able to elect a speaker.
You say stuff that has nothing to do with what is going on. Unbelievable.

Fine, if 20 Democrats resign from the House we'll have a new speaker 10 minutes later. Come on Dems take one for the team.

Crazy talk

Not an ounce of crazy talk there.
The Democratic People's Republic of Korea isn't South Korea, but North Korea. It's Marxist, meaning: Communist. Marxists convince the gullible public that they would be better off if they have a revolution and let the government do everything for them and eliminate classes. Marxism does eliminate the classes, for the most part. With Marxism, the lower middle class is gone, the middle class is gone, the lower wealthy class is gone, the wealthy class is gone and the upper wealthy class is gone and so, you have eliminated all the class system but one, everyone (with the exception of the inner-circle of the politburo) falls into one class, poor.
As for the MAGA Republicans, they actually want "less" government overall and less spending.

Marxism does not work. Every Marxist country ends up being an aristocracy. There is less government because one person, one party calls the shots for everyone. That sounds like Trumpism. There is a reason Trump’s two favorite world leaders were Kim Jong un and Putin. He wants their power. You need to wake up and see what Trump and MAGA are doing.
