Oh, we ARE finished as a Republic. Actually have been for a long time but I didn’t realize it until Barry took over. Now it s so obvious a blind man can see it.
Well Democrats are right, in a way. Trump is our dictator - we just believe he will do a far better job for us than any of their dictators. And they are rightly terrified of what might happen if their dictator loses control - somewhat irrationally, since Trump is a marshmallow compared to a Franco or a Pinochet who would actually reverse collectivist excesses at gunpoint.
The concept of electing representatives who will be responsive to what the American public wants is pretty far back in the rear view mirror. Now we just hope to find people willing to leave us alone.
