You really shoild brush up on your reading skills. I did not write that “the US is autocratic,” I wrote and the articles cited were about the US backtracking from its democratic institutions ns that our constitutional freedoms were under assault.
You morons still have not figured it out yet.
Yeah, it's OBAMA, HOLDER, Schumer, Biden, Pelosi, Harris, Walz (the great Walz of China), Jeffries, AOC, Mandami.
All of which has nothing to do with Trump’s assault on out freedoms. Whether you voted for Trump or not or whether you voted for Biden or not, is irrelevant to the issue at hand. That is the gradual loss of our democracy by the Trump regimes assault on our voting rights, the press, our civil liberties, the rule of law, and our privacy. The world sees it clearly. There are those in this country who see it as well and will stick up for this nation’s institutions.
The usual leftist scare mongering. You guys need to find a new game.President Donald Trump is dismantling U.S. democracy at an “unprecedented” rate, downgrading the U.S.’s democratic rating on a global scale and plunging the country toward autocracy at a faster rate than autocratic leaders of other countries in the 21st century, the latest report by an international democracy watchdog finds.
Varieties of Democracy (V-Dem) Institute at Sweden’s Gothenburg University finds in its annual report that Trump’s second term has been characterized by a swift concentration of power in the executive branch that ignores the rule of law, suppresses dissent, and targets civil rights.
Many countries are falling further into autocracy, the report finds. But the U.S. stands out as “an exceptional new autocratizer due to both far-reaching changes in 2025 and their implications for the rest of the world,” the group writes. “The extensive damage already done to American democracy under the second Trump presidency — in just one year — stands out on the world map.”
Trump has achieved in only one year what other countries with similar trends have taken a decade to achieve, the report says.

Now I know the first posts will be the usual Trumpist stupidity how we are not a democracy but a republic ignoring the obvious that we are a representative democracy.
The fact is our freedoms are under assault by the Trump regime and the world clearly sees it as well.
Congress has ceded its authority to Trump, Trump spits on the rule of law, and is actively undermining our election process with lies and more lies.
Brace yourself for the midterms. Expect Trump and his minions do all in their power to cast doubt on its legitimacy.
You know, because that is what all wannabe authoritarians do when they lose.
They need to leave.
Read your post. By calling those who disagree with you traitors, you have proven my point in spades. You MAGAs are anti-American and have betrayed the very principals so many soldiers have died for, I.e. the freedom to express your opinion. These are the freedoms you MAGAs want to kill.
No loss of voting rights.
You mean the right to lie?
Which ones? Spell it out fool.
There never was a right to privacy. Never.
I will express my opinion any time I want. You had no point. You can't answer the question. That's what important here.
You are NOT FREE to express your opinion? Pray tell, when did that happen?
And now they throw them in the trash and do what the lobbyists want.
Lol. Our elections are under assault because you MAGA consistently lie about voter fraud.
