Former Trump White House insiders call possible 2nd term a threat to American democracy
ABC via Yahoo ^ | December 31st, 2023 | SOO RIN KIM and QUINN SCANLAN

Three women who served in former President Donald Trump's White House are now warning against a possible second Trump term, with one of them saying it could mean "the end of American democracy as we know it."

For the first time, former White House Communications Director Alyssa Farah Griffin, former White House deputy press secretary Sarah Matthews, and former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson sat down together with ABC News "This Week" co-anchor Jonathan Karl to discuss their roles in speaking out against Trump in the wake of Jan. 6.

"Fundamentally, a second Trump term could mean the end of American democracy as we know it, and I don't say that lightly," Griffin, now a co-host of ABC's "The View," told Karl, accusing the former president of having gone to "historic and unconstitutional lengths" in attempting to "steal a democratic election" and to stay in power.

"I'm very concerned about what the term would actually look like," Griffin continued.

If having freedom loving American man like Trump is a “threat” then I am for him threatening me!

“Yes, Yahoo! “News” is an endless parade of rabid foaming Trump hate.”

The Yahoo news feed also has multiple conservative publications. Often.

They run any publication willing to pay.

Trump left 50 senior Obama administration officials in place when he took office......this 3 of those perhaps.

Why is it that all liberal “themselves”, “theyselves” or whatever their pronouns are, have teeth like a mule?

These people regurgitate the same literal talking points verbatim. Maybe they should grab a thesaurus and perhaps their words wouldnt seem like such obvious propaganda.

Meanwhile….The most obvious “threat to democracy” of course is persecuting your political rival and trying to remove him from ballots.

Where would we be without all of these thoughtful “journalists” seeking out the seriously considered political opinions of our betters?

After reading this morning’s ABC News analysis I’m now inclined to vote for anyone but Trump, even if it’s Kamala Harris./s

I wonder if Ms. "fivehead" there is a Pretendian like Liz Warren. I notice anytime a white person claims she or he has native American heritage, they always part their hair in the middle and put it behind their ears in the thought it makes them look more Indian.

Voters electing Trump is a threat to Democracy. Oh, OK. That makes no sense. Banning Trump from ballots? That’s a real threat to Democracy.

These UniParty criminals are so f*cking worthless and stupid.

A pile of fresh dog squeezings masquerading as a news site.

'Near as I can tell, what people these days call “American democracy” has nothing to do with either America or democracy."

Astute, you are... :)

I’ll bet Soo Rin Tin Tin knows every one of them personally. They all probably hangout out at the same liberal joints trying to “wrap their heads” around Trump.

"American Democracy" already does not exist.

They yell to distract you.

The more they complain...the more I intend to vote for him.

It speaks more about them than it does him.

And to honest, I am looking for some payback. Pinochet style.

Three scorned women, two of them under 30. Face it, one was there because of her dad’s name, the other two were basically unqualified hot girls there for coffee, eye candy, and blowjobs.

Not allowed to say it, but the opinions of three bimbos are worth very little.
