Without clicking, I’d guess it’s global warming.

We should restore the Constitutional Republic we once had.

Without some major reforms to that, we would just be right back in this place again.
I agree, though, that a Constitutional Republic is the best form of government.

Let me guess — totalitarian, despotic control, probably by marxists and communists.

Democracy can be easily defined as mobocracy, as our founders understood. The cure is a republic, held in check by an armed educated informed public.

Execute every pol that makes a policy proposal that reduces net individual autonomy and privacy? Gotta run out eventually?

I am going to watch it when I get home. I am curious...as you said, we don’t have a democracy.
People use “Democracy” as shorthand for “Republic” in the same way some people use “Liberal” as shorthand for “Leftist”.

People use Democracy as shorthand for Republic in the same way some people use Liberal as shorthand for Leftist. That is correct. Keep in mind, though, that both republics and "true" democracies both suffer from this issue he is talking about in this video, so just pretend he is talking about republics as well.

Accusing all women of voting left-wing? Trump’s victory counted on a lot of female voters.
What needs to go are the Sixteenth and Seventeenth.
