The end of Democracy?

I see that your-hate inspired reading precludes your actual comprehension of that which you read.

As far as trolls go, you aren't even a good one. You could at least try to be entertaining...
JPC who ties your shoelaces for you?

When a small petty minded individual begins their tirade with “most people” you know straight away they’re not the sharpest tool in the box.
 
Democracy is having a bad day when the GOP leading candidate says out loud that he wants the US economy to crash and it barely makes the news.

Saying that won't lose him a single vote (but he could molest an underage girl on Fifth Avenue or Epstein Island and he wouldn't lose any votes either).
 
I came to work today hoping democracy has ended. It has not. 🤬
 
Drumpf (trump original family name, Germany) is n fact the answer to the end of democracy. He will change America to a authoritarian government
 
Which party has more reps who have been charged with voter fraud, dumbass?
I remember the head of the DNC bragging on hidden camera while trying to convince a young couple to join their effort "Of course we cheat, all over all the time and we know how to do it without leaving evidence".

Florida Republicans oust party chairman Christian Ziegler, who is accused of rape


The Republican Party of Florida ousted Chairman Christian Ziegler in a special vote on Monday as police
investigate a rape accusation against him, a vote that came the week before Gov. Ron DeSantis competes
in Iowa's first-in-the-nation presidential caucus.

The party suspended Ziegler last month and demanded his resignation, saying he can't effectively lead during
a critical election year with the allegations, which Ziegler denies, swirling around him. Gov. Ron DeSantis,
U.S. Sens. Marco Rubio and Rick Scott, and other Republican leaders have called on Ziegler to step down, but he has refused.

DeSantis is seeking the GOP nomination for president, but ahead of the Jan. 15 Iowa caucus he trails far
behind former President Donald Trump, who also is a Floridian. Scott is running for reelection. Florida also
will play a key role in determining control of the U.S. House.

"We have to move past this and have to focus on 2024," said state Sen. Joe Gruters, who preceded Ziegler
as party chair. "Florida's one of the most important states for the Republicans and we have to continue to
bring home victories, especially for Rick Scott and the top of the ticket with Trump as our nominee, eventually."

Beyond the rape accusation, there is another troublesome element for the party. Under DeSantis, Florida has
stripped rights away from LGBTQ+ Floridians and banned instruction on gender identity and sexual orientation in schools.
 
No, as usual the repubican'ts have shot themselves in the foot... again. When you run with trump YOU pay the price.
I'm not a fan of Trump, he's socially awkward, but not as bad as the media has been portraying him for 6 years now. Nevertheless, his policies led to growth, improvements in our standards of living and more individual freedom. The Dems, on the other hand, implemented inflationary policies despite the warnings. Their inflation has robbed the careful people who have been circumspect and diligently lived within their means to save. It is estimated that as much as 30% of savings have disappeared in Biden's depends. For some people, that's 10 years or more of pinching pennies gone. Dem policy is poison.

Oh good, I like playing "whataboutism". How about we talk about the vast rise in violent crime in Dem- run cities?

Socially awkward? That's the best term you can come up with after what has and is accused of doing?
  • Weasling out of military service after going through multiple doctors to find one that would accept his 'bone spurs claim' that he couldn't serve because of it? Played tennis for years well enough to show his awkward ass on TV. Plays golf without hobbling over those bone spurs.
  • Agile enough to have sex wanted or unwanted with multiple women while his wife was pregnant.
  • Has the morality of [fill in your choice here]
  • Said his daughter was hot enough to have sex with.
  • Called wounded warriors stupid for their service.
  • Insulted John McCann's POW time in service. Mocks John, trying to raise his hand. [Asshole D.T.]
  • His niece, a psychologist, says he is unable to admit when he is wrong. A narcissistic person, she said.
  • Built a wall - no pictures for those thousands of miles he said Mexico would pay for.
  • Raised taxes except for the super-wealthy.
  • Used mental telepathy to unclassify Top Secret documents. Gave info out to foreign nationals about some of those plans as bragging points.
  • Said he would release his taxes but didn't until forced to by lawsuits that leaked them anyway.
  • Lies as a matter of daily exercising.
  • Exhibits classic bullying traits.
  • Facing Federal indictments - 91 more or less
  • New York wants to pull his business licenses over fraud. [has that accordion Trump Tower condo square footage issue]
  • Declared he would be a dictator for at least a day - probably had his fingers crossed.
  • Says it is okay to suspend the Constitution to get things done his way.
  • I could go on ... but the point is Donald Trump is more than 'socially awkward.'

You do realise there is a difference between hearsay and evidence?

Oh, I agree with a LOT of what trump spouts but that is where it ends. That man knows what you want to hear and plays on it. I have known trump since the eighties and he is only for trump. If you can not see that in spades by now you are a blind trumptard.
 
^^ Some big cities reported record low or a record drop in homicide rates.
 
Crime, especially violent crime is easy down.

You're confusing right wing talking points with facts again.

“Blaming “liberal” District Attorney policies for crime levels and trends ignores both facts (Florida’s rural areas, heavily governed by Republicans, suffer higher murder and gun violence rates than California’s large cities, including Los Angeles, governed by Democrats) and logic (local economics and police crime clearance practices influence crime numbers far more than DA policies). Unfortunately, partisan distortion of important crime issues continues to plague media and policy forums to the detriment of reasoned discussion.”

Amen. Their partisanship makes them willfully ignorant.
