Globalist Insider Larry Summers: “Trump Is a Serious Threat to American Democracy”
The New American ^ | March 1, 2016 | William F. Jasper

Posted on 03/02/2016 2:53:33 PM PST by detective

The title of the Washington Post op-ed wastes no time on subtlety: “Larry Summers: Donald Trump is a serious threat to American democracy.” The March 1 opinion piece by Lawrence H. Summers accuses the Republican presidential front-runner of, among other things, being a “thug,” a “demagogue,” and a threat to “the rule of law” and “democracy,” but feigns graciousness by opining that Trump is slightly better than Hitler and Mussolini on the thuggery scale.

No Mr. Summers, Donald Trump is what happens when the people lash the hell out because Washington has ignored the common people for so long for their own interests.

Democracy and the republic may fall under Trump, but it was the establishment’s own doing.

Mr. Summers needs to find a mirror.

Another open borders toady.

I’ll have to add him to the list of those trying out for the part of Joseph Goebbels. There are a lot of them already on there with their big lie technique: Podhoretz, Kristol, Goldberg, Goldstein, Diamond. Man, that list is growing by the day.

You ARE a putz!

EVERY SINGLE PERSON in the “globalism” clique, is against Donald Trump.

All of them.

Every single person. They are all responsible for the absolute destruction of American industry, our economic future, and Trump is the (only) person anywhere, standing up and saying we need to re-industrialize.

That is why I strongly support Donald Trump.

Trump is a threat to American Democracy?

Good.

Yyou see, that's the problem. America is not a Democracy...nor has it ever been.

It is a representative, constitutional republic and was meant to never be a democracy.

You will not find the word Democracy in the U.S. Constitution when it comes to defining what America is. You will find instead, the word Republic.

The progressive left and enemies of this nation have been doing all they can to turn it into a democracy so they can subvert it.

So, if Trump is a serious threat to THAT, he is a friend of mine...and a friend of our Republic.

Maybe, just maybe, the sheeple will figure out what some of us have been saying for decades about this country being one huge corrupt enterprise. These scumbags are not going away without a brutal fight. Donald, get 2 food tasters & up your security. Freepers, may be time to up your ammo & water supplies.

Democracy is not the same as individual rights.

Democracy is welfare layabouts voting themselves a raise out of your stuff.

That’s what American democracy has become.

When you have a Government that is not run by the people, for the people and of the people, you do not have a Country...

When you have a Government that doesn’t listen to what the people are saying and wanting done to make a Nation better, you do not have a Country...

When you have a Government that sends all of the manufacturing and jobs for the people of the country to foreign countries, you do not have a Country for it’s people...

When you have a Government that will allow anyone from anywhere to come into a Country without protecting its citizens first and foremost, you do not have a Country...

When you have a Government that takes away any of your freedoms, healthcare, economy, protection, you do not have a Country...

When you cannot find enough money to live on because your Government is funding foreign countries first, you do not have a Country...

When a Government will not abide by the Constitution it was given to follow, you do not have a Country...

When you have a Government that won’t allow people to honor their religion, you do not have a Country...

Therefore, in the situation we are in today at this present time, we have one person who is an American, born on American Soil, and has built the American Dream for us to follow will give this Country back to it’s people where it belongs...

And that person is Donald J. Trump....

I will wager that the Globalist class will remove Trump by August, either by sabotage at the Convention, by made-up scandal (involving an arrest), or by bullet or ‘accident’.

I hereby offer as my wager, ONE AMERICAN DOLLAR.

Who will take me up on this?
