CBS’s Sunday Morning started off with their anchor Jane Pauley fearmongering that if Republicans win in the 2022 midterm elections, “democracy” could end in the United States. Plugging an upcoming segment by correspondent Robert Costa, Pauley fretted that “the very future of our democracy” is on the ballot in 2022.
“This past summer, it was looking like the Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v Wade might offer an opportunity to the party in power, the Democrats. But a more recent issue, inflation, could very well rule the day. And favor Republicans,” Pauley bemoaned.
Kicking off his report, Costa cried “hundreds of candidates for state and national office have denied the legitimacy of the 2020 presidential election. And while crime and inflation dominate the headlines, many are sounding the alarm about what else is at stake in 2022.”
Turning to Michael Berkman who currently serves as president of the McCourtney Institute for Democracy, Costa allowed him to fearmonger: “Democracy doesn't usually die through coups or invasion. It usually dies from within.”

The mean Democratacy ... rule by Democrats.
Same old talking point about losing "democracy" The Greg Gutfeld show recently did a montage of media and politicians using the same talking point. It was not only funny to watch these talking heads copy each other, it was a little disconcerning. Many on his panel asked "Do they so-called journalists ever look beyond what they're fed from their liberal producers?"
I truly believe these socialists/commmies have become unhinged to reality.
Democracy ..Democrat..oh I get it now.
I wasn’t aware we had a Democracy, I thought it was a Republic where the government is Democratically elected.
If we had a real Democracy what stops the majority from passing a law that all registered Democrat party members shall be summarily executed, starting now?
Nothing. I’d vote for such a law as I’m in the majority.
We are a constitutional republic, not a democracy. It just goes to show you how everything has been dumbed down.
Snopes says it’s not true because the impeachment resolutions didn’t get much support.
When gang members were intimidating voters at the polling place in Philadelphia (to suppress non-Democrat voters) I don't remember you or any of your fellow travelers lamenting about the end of democracy. What you are really worried about is the end of Democratacy, a coalition of politicians, leftist activists, and 'journalists' who want to be a big part of the 'story' instead of just reporting the news.
Your lamentations are motivated by self-interest. Further, your ill-conceived notion that you are on the side of the tolerant and the progressive and the intelligent is just not true, in the least. You are on the side of totalitarians, and are too delusional to know it. I feel sorry for you.
Well, they are correct, if you know how to speak their language.
Democracy = obey.
Our Democracy = obey us.
Absolutely correct.
Excellent Smithers
The USA returns to the Constitutional Republic of the Founding Fathers.
They made up the myth of MAGA Brownshirts smashing in their front doors with AR-15’s for partisan political gain - but too many of their adherents now actually believe it will happen to them if Democrats lose.
” end of Democratacy, a coalition of politicians, leftist activists, and ‘journalists’ “
democratism
How on earth do these idiot liberal CBS thugs define ‘democracy’?
Most of us on our side feel it has something to do with a free people being able to elect the folks to represent them.
CBS seems to feel it has to do with ‘elites’ and un-elected ‘intelligence’ groups making the calls on who is allowed to run and who is allowed to win. That’s creepy.
Sick puppies.
Good. I want the republic back.
LOL whenever commies scream about “MUH DEMOCRACY” they mean their communist agenda
I must confess to reveling in the Schadenfreude of the lefties right about now...
It’s interesting that the media doesn’t even bother to pretend anymore…
They want to drill it into everyone’s heads that we are a democracy, therefore democrats can be the only rightful ones to rule it
Jane Pauley and Robert Costa only now, in the final months of Rat control, are realizing what’s in store for demons like themselves. Their days on this mortal realm, this earth, this soil, are coming to an end. They will soon be fed to the worms.
Embrace the suck, coup plotters. You are soon getting your reward to hell.
