Democrats are on course to lose in 2022 and 2024. If they do, we may lose our democracy.
Washington Compost ^ | November 16, 2021 | Max Boot

Even worse, the poll shows that registered voters prefer Republicans over Democrats in congressional races by 10 points. If the midterm elections were held today, the result would be a GOP landslide. Given how extremist and authoritarian the Republican Party has become...that is deep cause for concern.

Hilarious! The fool understands that this administration is a total train wreck and still stands by the contention that we must keep it going. This is the definition of pure idiocy.

Ah yes; Max Boot. Another one chimes in from the Chaney wing of the Republican party; which is to say Democrat.

As long as we don’t use our constitutional republic.

The GOP is so extreme and dangerous that the party continues to support a Republican, Murkowski, who voted to remove a GOP POTUS based on a Democrat hoax.

While I am thoroughly against Trump’s stance that the election was rigged, I think the GOP is playing fantastic politics by showing outrageous Rat policies hurting the USA, by demonstrating to the suburban voters that their candidates are not scary and are not Trump and by appealing to hard core Trump voters with some of Trump’s policies.

The Democrat/Wapo version of democracy needs to lose so I don’t see a problem here but I do see a benefit.

Well, actually, we do NOT have a “democracy”; we have a REPUBLIC. And with the current autocratic regime, there is NOTHING “democratic” about the way they are running our government.
That’s why I wish Conservatives would raise holy hell every time the word “democratic” is used to describe any words or actions emanting from a member of the DEMOCRAT (I prefer Demonrat) party.
Or, they should describe Republican words and actions as “Republicanic”!

I honestly do not get it.

I have heard for years about how "authoritarian" people on the right are, it is even in one of those stupid on line "personality test".

Yet I know of no right leaning person that wants to control what your kids are taught, make you get injections, force you to bake the cake, tell you to just "take your beating", control what you eat and how much, decide what medical treatment you can have, or any of a host of other things that our dear left wing counterparts seem to be obsessed about controlling.

As far as I can tell "authoritarian" means you can not murder the innocent with impunity, you may not sexually groom kids and you may not steal other people's stuff.

I will give up democracy to save the republic. Seems like a fair trade to me.

They are talking THEIR version of how a republic voted in by the democratic process works.

Uncontrolled voter fraud will see the Democrats through those trying times. Nobody’s bothered to stop them in the past.

It seems as though “authoritarian” in the leftist mind means that “authoritarians” are people who think we should not commit infanticide, perform tranny bottom surgery on kids, allow boys into girls’ locker rooms, basically anything that keeps some sense of normality to society.

The only freedoms the left apparently supports are those that allow one to do fun and creative things with one’s private parts. Oh, and free money (taken from other people).

More communist propaganda designed to keep a large portion of the American patriots home on election day...

It has worked fine in the past...
