I’ve been reading in a lot of angry tweets that allowing Trump to appear in a CNN town hall last night threatens our democracy.

How so?

For the informed, I know we do not have a democracy.

If Trump appeared on CNN to report the weather you'd read angry tweets about threatening world peace.

Half of them have no idea. The other half are over educated morons who speak in circles using big words.

I think it’s pretty obvious he plans to end the rule of law and democracy going forward by attempting to implement real ID, paper ballots, and a 24 hour window for voting to take place which anyone, with at least an eighth grade level of education, should understand would completely transform this country into a Third World Marxist dictatorship.

They can't give you answer because libtards are brainwashed by the leftist media. Hell, a lot of them are still wearing masks three years after the plandemic.

Of course they can give you an answer. They would say...

On January 6 2021 Trump tried to overthrow a peaceful and Democratic election. He has shown through those actions that he is willing to subvert our democratic institutions to seize, or remain in, power. If he is reelected he will likely try to hold onto power by whatever means necessary.

I don't even believe this, and I could answer it. And that is a very good test to determine if you have a serious mind. If you can't make your opponents' arguments for them then you don't.

Things the left says they want but they only want it for themselves:
1. Tolerance/patience
2. Freedom of religion
3. Equality (the upside at least)
4. Freedom from judgment/criticism
5. Democracy
6. Race-based carve-outs/rights
7. Higher taxes (kinda the reverse but you know what I mean)
8. Free speech
9. Right to bear arms
10. Everything else

Kinda funny how weather stories can't seem to avoid "climate change" on the national level. Weather Channel is horrible about it, so is the BBC. I saw the BBC blame an earthquake in Japan on climate change.

and then when you ask them if that means the ENTIRE LEFT WING ESTABLISHMENT was trying to overthrow a peaceful and democratic election in 2016, they will either not post on the thread again, or make some vague reference to some intelligence report that made some sort of tenuous link between Trump's third cousin's neighbor and the guy that played Teddy KGB in Rounders.

If democrats fear the end of democracy, why do they whistle past the graveyard while their leaders unlawfully spy on Americans, censor political speech, propagandize the media, stuff ballot boxes in the dark of night, shut down entire cities, and try to force Americans to ingest experimental vaccines?

It's coded language.

Any time you see a liberal or uniparty stooge say "our democracy," they really mean "the rigged system that we the political elite game on the daily basis in our continuing quest to put personal enrichment above God and Country."

It's one of the left's meaningless terms when they're too stupid to offer logical rebuttal. Some others are:
'You're a fascist.'
'You're a hater.'
'You're a (fill in blank) aphobe.'
