Look at what's happening. Donald Trump, for the most part, owns an entire political party, a party (apparently) without testicles. Pennsylvania Republicans have decided they'll run a man (Mastriano) who openly wanted to overturn the last PA presidential election. Trumps mad Dr. Oz may yet (after recount) win the primary for Senate.

It's happening everywhere.

I have a question, and I'm going to put it in a poll.

Do Republicans support democracy in America. If your answer is "no," it means they would rather see it dismantled for some other system.

You make the claim, but the evidence of the past few years suggests that you are quite wrong. Republicans have been trying to overturn the last election since it happened (and before, actually), and in spite of ALL evidence being against them -- as tested in over 60 court cases -- refuse to accept the result.

And if you cannot support the result of a free and fair election, how on earth can you claim to support democracy?

(Let the conspiracy theories begin -- I've no doubt we'll be flooded with them in hours.)

The Democrats are worse.

The Democrats' Plan To Nationalize Land, Democratic Socialism In Action



Democrats Seek To Outlaw Suburban, Single-Family House Zoning, Calling It Racist And Bad For The Environment

More Western Leaders Call for the End of Private Vehicle Ownership



Yes I agree. Prepare for the end of democracy.

In broad strokes, yes they do. Most rank and file Republicans have no problem in principle with a broadly democratic government. Some of them have just been duped into this paranoid idea that the last presidential election was carried out fraudulently because their guy lost.

Of course they support democracy.

After more than a year of the "stolen election" perpetuated lies and over 60 failed lawsuits filed in an attempt to overturn the 2020 presidential election results, I find it difficult to believe that the majority of Republicans (who support Trump) support democracy.

Ya’ll sure like taking some extremists and lumping them into the huge umbrella that is “Republican.” Peace out.

When the “extremists” are winning the Republican primaries doesn’t that mean the majority of Republicans voted for them?

Or are you saying the primaries were rigged?

Of course republicans support democracy, the question is who are the democrats going to blame for their losses? They ran the fake Russia narrative into the ground, then tried to blame China briefly which made no sense and they completely ignored numerous fellow democrats who told them it would be this way since they tried to appease the far left loonies of their party over the centrists. Much of the presstitutes in MSM have a hand in this too, did they really think that false narrative after false narrative would work out for them and their chosen party? The truth will always come out eventually and the American people are not stupid, many of us were never the sheep they thought we were.
I guess all the fringe democrats and their presstitute allies in many MSM outlets and shills on social media will continue doing what they have always done, exploit racism, fear, use emotional pleas, and ignore their own failures and attack, attack, attack because they have nothing to stand on. The fringe democrats and the left seem to have zero problem exploiting and inflaming race to attempt to gain votes regardless of what it does to this country.

So how's democracy up in Trudeau land? seems many countries in Europe see Trudeau as nothing more than a dictator, even that Trudeau was a "dictator of the worst kind" he was humiliated in Brussels, called a :disgrace" and one who "Tramples on democratic rights". I Imagine the CBC put a nice little spin on his "glorious" escapades.

That's a great point. So you'll have no problem admitting that Trump lost in 2020, right?

Is there any evidence from that laptop?

Fraudulent claims of Russia collusion..

I would say incompetent choices for early investigators. Some investigators will tell people what they want to hear instead of what the evidence shows. And do not forget that Trump himself said that he would collude with the Russians if given a chance.

Packing votes.
No evidence of that at all. There is only evidence to the contray.

Blah blah blah...

You sound far worse than the Democrats when it comes to false charges.

Was the Hunter Biden laptop Russian disinformation? Yes or No

Who were all the former intelligence experts that said it was Russian disinformation and where are they now?

What was the political affiliation of every former intelligence expert that said the Hunter Biden laptop was Russian disinformation?

There's a bit of a difference between believing an election was rigged and not believing in democracy, don't you think?
