    American democracy is stronger than the whims of one man or party. You’re falling into a propaganda black hole if you believe Trump is both the single biggest threat to democracy ever, and a largely incompetent president who lost as an incumbent.

      Nobody is saying that Trump will single-handedly do all this. What we’re saying is that he will directly or indirectly facilitate all of this, so yes he is the biggest single threat to democracy in the US we face this year.

      Yes, good old “it can’t happen here” will keep everyone safe, I’m sure.

      Trump tried to steal the election with his fake electors and sent his supporters to storm the capitol, but let’s forget that and give him another chance at it - it worked well with Hitler.

        SCOTUS is literally considering whether or not to hand the president a Long Knife. That’s the distance we are from the precipice overlooking a reich.
