Democracy should be killed. It’s a threat to humanity.

Interesting work of propaganda.

In this case, they are essentially correct with their assessment, but not in the manner that they purposely portray this truism as a negative.

Preaching to their base. Democracy is bad, and Federalism is meant to keep Democracy at bay, as history demonstrates why Democracy fails. Mob rule appeals to power hungry tyrants and ignorant, but well meaning (in their opinion), liberals.

What they don’t like specifically about it is the Bill of Rights. Liberals have a different set of things they think should be rights. Such as the right to make others do what you want. The right to take what others have. The right to make other people agree with you. The right to have your delusions forced upon others.

I want to give Jim Acosta the biggest wedgie on live television, ever given to someone in the history of the world.

Let's see if CNN handles this like Fox News did with the "wannabe dictator" chyron text.

Makes sense when you reize that to the leftists, “democracy” means government domination over all of society.

There’s a reason we’ve called it “Communist News Network” for years.

Not a shocker to me.

Its not CNN saying it, its “scholars say”. You can find any leftwing scholar to say anything, its not hard.

The only truly outdated thing mentioned is Harvard and the rest of the, now idiotic Ivy League.

The Supreme Court is the only institution standing in the way of the DemonRATS dream of completely transforming America to a Leftist utopia. I do not think they will wait patiently for decades to get rid of pesky Conservative Justices.

Good, because we’re not a ‘Democracy’. We are, or were, a Constitutional Republic.

We are an Oligarchy now, sadly.

“Rule by decree is necessary to preserve our democracy.”

They really believe this.
