David Frum, a former speechwriter for President George W. Bush, is issuing a dire warning about the state of American democracy should President Donald Trump win a second term.
Writing in The Atlantic, Frum argues bluntly that America "wouldn't survive" a second Trump term, even as the country is limping to the finish of his first term.
In fact, Frum believes that Trump has already proven that an American president can get away with discarding guardrails in place to keep him in check without suffering significant political consequences.

I read another article written today with Obama using the word “guardrails” concerning Trump.
It must be the Democrats new code word.
Guardrails = The Democrats and the media need to control this guy.
What a low energy comment from Frum.
I actually wasted a few hours readings Frum’s “Dead Right”. His solution, as are his confreres’, is for the Republican Party to jettison the social right and to go more in a mildly libertarian direction. This former Canadian wants us to mimic the wildly successful Canadian Progressive Conservatives.
Why do these future inmates self-identify? You’d think they’d be packing their bags and looking for a hut on a Thailand beach with their 8 year old partners by now.
Middle class wealth is at an all-time high.
Mortgages rates are near historic lows.
I can’t remember anyone with such an apocalyptic premise grasping so desperately hard at straws to justify it. Lame, lame, lame.

A professional political liar.
America would do just fine. The corrupt Establishment would suffer a severe setback though.
- firm majority of Originalists on the Supreme Court
- more appellate courts flipped (maybe even the 9th!)
- border wall completed and plans to drown America in a tidal wave of pliant 3rd worlders thwarted
- Supply chain ripped out of China
- middle class solidified due to return of manufacturing
- bankrupt blue states not bailed out and thus unable to dump their costs onto red states
- millions more Americans armed
- more troops brought home
- Gaia worshiping schemes thwarted
- Yurp freeloaders forced to pay more of their own way
- Big Tech busted up
The Democrat/Establishment has much to fear.
"You talkin' to me, FReeper? You can't be, with this mug? I'm a ladykilla!"
He’s confusing America with the GOP.
Pay-to-play, military-industrial complex, deep state puppeteers, identity politic divide-and-conquer may not survive.
But America will be just fine.
They’ll make sure of that. More Chinese attacks?
More fact free assertions. I ask my few liberal friends to name the specific incidents they have in mind when spewing this stuff and they can never name one. They just come unhinged and rant bad orange man he is embarrassing he is a dictator he is sexist rascist....
“Depends on how far Antifa riots go.”
Key point. It’s not that any of the President’s actions are detrimental to the country. It’s the actions of those opposed to him that are unraveling things.
Frum, dumb. Dumb Frumb.
Dumb Frum,
sits on his thumb,
spews out nonsense,
What a bum.
The Deep State guardrails that were headed to socialism/communism were firmly in place under Bush when he passed the power to Obama.....Hillary was supposed to finish the Hi-speed Highway but “We the People” and Trump put up a STOP sign....
The sad thing is...like Auschwitz......many of the “Elite and educated” think they are 1st in line for a free shower....
So he thinks we could do well under a President Harris- VPPelousy regime with Puppetmeister Soroznazi pulling all the strings?
