Unmasking the Real Threat to America's Democracy
American Thinker ^ | Joseph C. Newtz

Posted on 05/22/2025 3:32:01 AM PDT by RoosterRedux

America isn't a democracy but a constitutional republic designed to limit majority rule and protect individual rights. This distortion enables narratives that label dissent as dangerous, especially in portraying Trump as a "threat to democracy" -- a claim pushed by institutions caught spreading falsehoods about him. What appears as consensus is actually assigned opinion enforced by media and political power, as "conspiracy theories used to silence dissent are proving to be true.

What follows is not just a list of lies -- it’s a pattern of systemic deception that reveals where the real threat lies.

The Concealment of President Biden’s Cognitive Decline: A Betrayal of Voters

For years, concerns about Joe Biden’s mental acuity were dismissed as partisan attacks or “conspiracy theories.” The White House physician declared him fit for office. Staffers claimed he “ran circles around them.” Meanwhile, public appearances were tightly controlled, questions were pre-approved, and scripted answers were passed off as spontaneous.

But in 2024, the dam broke. Biden’s debate performance made his decline undeniable. Millions had already cast primary ballots for a man clearly unfit to serve -- yet instead of outrage over the scale of the deception, voters watched passively as Kamala Harris stepped in as the de facto candidate.

It was an unconstitutional transfer of candidacy that the media refused to acknowledge. This wasn’t spin -- it was a deliberate, coordinated effort to deceive the American public about who was actually running the country.

The takeover of the White House by unelected family (Jill and Hunter) and staff, using an enfeebled old man as a Potemkin President, is possibly the greatest crime in American history.

This crime and all those involved must be prosecuted.

Exploiting an elderly person with dementia and terminal cancer for one’s personal gain is a CRIME.

Staffers claimed he “ran circles around them.”

Right. As they formed circles around him when he shuffled anywhere. To prevent prying eyes from witnessing his dotterage. Smh

And exploiting an elderly person to take over the country is treason.

Another conspiracy theory debunked by the Mockingbird State Media is later proven true. How many does this make?

Why would anybody believe a thing they say? Even now they are lying about their complicity.

You would have better odds of winning if you bought a lottery ticket than if you bet on prosecution of higher ups from the Biden Administration by the Trump law enforcement team. When Patel and Bongino bent the knee to the Deep State and said that Epstein killed himself and that Crooks acted alone in Butler, PA, they tacitly admitted that nothing serious will happen to the bad guys. Maybe James Comey or Letitia James will be indicted, mainly because Comey is stupid and James overtly corrupt.

Trump needs sterner people in Federal law enforcement and intelligence agencies than those he has chosen, Tulsi Gabbard excepted.

They need to hang, they usurped the presidency which is literally treason. They attempted a coup d’état and almost succeed, only Trump’s election win prevented them.

It is much more sinister than that. “Joe” was (and is) a prop, an audioanamatronic (broken) shill for the #JihadJunta and their overlords. It was a Coup d’etat. We suffered, were robbed, scorned, infected and worse, by zealots who, frankly, want all of our money and want us dead. That’s the reality of all of this.

Yep.

The media was co-opted and corrupted by the Marxists whose job it was to deprive American citizens of the truth. They knew that if they could hide the truth from us, we wouldn't see their overthrow of the country.

But they've been exposed. Busted.

It isn't a matter of these crimes being prosecuted by Trump's legal team. These crimes are too big for them in their individual roles. They will need courage from the top.

This collective treason will be prosecuted because Trump understands that it must be prosecuted if the country is to be restored. The courage for this prosecution will come—must come—from the Resolute Desk.

Just as he courageously confronted Pres. Cyril Ramaphosa yesterday in the Oval Office, he will risk his presidency on the prosecution of these crimes.

BTW, this isn't just about what went on in the Biden White House. This is about everything the Democrats (and some Republicans) have been doing to rape the country.

Ultimately it is the People who must demand the heads of America’s so-called “Elites”.

“ The real crisis in America isn’t Donald Trump. It’s the normalization of institutional lying, the abandonment of due process, and the transformation of journalism into narrative enforcement.”

Let’s be real. Obama and his co-conspirators did it.
