Why do right wingers want to end democracy?

If they get their way there will BE no more democracy in the US and those right wing traitors want EXACTLY that.
Look at Jim Jordan, hemming and hawing about what phone calls he had with Trump on Jan 6 last year, it was clear he KNEW he was in deep legal trouble and could in fact find himself in jail as a traitor and that is just the tip of the iceberg of traitors in the repub party.
I just hope we get to get those basstards in court before they take over the senate and house again so they can codify the destruction of democracy right in front of our eyes.

You people seem to be misconstruing the state of the union.

"By giving the government unlimited powers **, the most arbitrary rule can be made legal; and in this way a democracy may set up the most complete despotism imaginable". Friedrich Hayek

** Your gal AOC yesterday called on Biden to just unleash all executive orders necessary to run the government. This particular tirade is out of the Manchin affair...AOC wants to 'go around' Democracy.

OK,,,,,, back to your unleashing. Just being helpful,, as an observer. Muster your comrades.

@sonhouse

You are so delusional it's almost sad.
In your defense...most people as old as you go crazy.
You should be out enjoying nature or contemplating the universe and how you fit in.
Quit wasting your time hating white people which means you essentially hate yourself 🤔

Merry Christmas 🎅

The fact is (not so much you but)... sonhouse thinks we are one day away from Nazis marching up and down the streets.

That is absurd and laughable. 😄

Here is the deal: You are not even AMERICAN so BUG OFF, this is an AMERICAN problem not a CANADIAN problem.

And you think there is no problem with the US losing our democracy.

I can tell you WE THINK DIFFERENTLY.

We will fight a takeover by repubs.

You maybe didn't notice the 400 PLUS bills wending through STATE legislators designed SPECIFICALLY to limit the amount of democrats voting, removing polling places so a BLACK community has ONE place to vote where last week there were NINE.

THAT IS DELIBERATE and maybe you don't know what is REALLY going on here in the US but it is a fight over democracy whether you understand that or not or whether you believe it or not.

We CAN lose our democracy where Repubs rule forever and all the vindictiveness going on there.

Demographics are against them and the smart Republicans know it. They have three options:

1. Do nothing, and lose more ground, both among the electorate and in office.

2. Cheat by changing the rules so a minority party still gets into office.

Or 3. Appeal to a wider section of the electorate.

There are smart Republicans. Ben Sasse, Senator from NE, for example. and then there are Republicans who are merely adept political manipulators, such as Mitch McConnell.
