The results of the midterms may determine if American democracy endures

I'm not saying we're due for authoritarianism, which you will definitely interpret this as. But every time a country in history HAS slipped into authoritarianism - there were many people who responded like the above, and often not too long before it happened.

Democracy is an experiment. It's not a done deal.

Things that we swore couldn't happen here have already happened. You are a fool if you don't believe it will get worse. When people are rounded up and carted away in the middle of the night, some will realize the horrible mistake they made. Others, like Stone, will applaud seeing their political enemies jailed and executed, because he really is a Nazi. Eventually, they will come for enough people that the rest will toss them out on their asses. The arc of history is long, but it bends towards justice. But we are about to go over the cliff. I think it's over.
 
Today I’m not particularly worried about Republicans’ policy preferences. Today I’m worried about the survival of our democracy.

I’m worried that a majority of Republican candidates are telling voters, without any basis in fact, that the 2020 election was stolen from Donald Trump.

I’m worried that if elected, many of these Republicans will make it harder to conduct elections in the future, allow or encourage endless audits of election results, and even refuse to sign off on them.

You worry far too much. Step away from your keyboard and go for a very long walk. Your posts are nothing more than CNN and MSNBS bullshit.
 
Stone would have been posting the same stuff at lefties in 2003 when they said Iraq would be a disaster, and that most conservatives would pretend they didn't support it eventually.

Honestly, I really hate being right all the time.

Conservative got nuthin'. At least on this board.

There are a few who try for legit arguments, and I've learned a thing or 2 from some of them. But most just do the Stone thing now.
 
Hollllllllllllllly shit! :rolleyes: How much sappy corniness can possibly be put into one thread? This is the kind of thing that is going to get you blown out on tuesday. People are pointing and laughing at you!

:eyerol

Well, that's it then. Since we can't beat you, I'm going to join you! I've already burned all my LGBTQ books and books about slavery and The Holocaust. I'm picking up lumber for crosses on all my black neighbor's lawns, and I just bought a Kanye album.

I'm all set!
 
Keep the trains running on time, or at least accuse the other guy of making the trains late, and you are forgiven for being a despotic dictator. In fact, if you are THEIR dictator, you can attempt an insurrection, steal top secret documents, shake down our allies, and lie constantly. As long as your are perceived as 'owning the libs'. Because that's all Republicans care about. White supremacy. And 'the libs' represent diversity. There is NOTHING that scares old white men more than diversity.

I was optimistic over the summer that we might avoid the coming disaster. I no longer am. Biden and Garland are fiddling while Rome burns. I think Trump will be President again, and democracy is over for decades. No reason to believe that Trump will let the Constitution prevent him from seizing and holding power.

If that happens, I will be gone before the inauguration. You just have to look at the JPP nutters here to know they would hunt down ANYONE that opposed their Dear Leader. We will have no Constitutional protections once Trump takes office.

You had me until, "trump will be president again". NO! DeSatan and he are already having a food fight and when the rest of them see trump weakening, they'll take him out completely, stop covering for his lies, etc. twump's in such legal trouble a judge many bar him from running altogether.

He still has fans, but fans are fickle. Look at all the neanderthals that celebrated Ronnie's migrant kidnapping.

twump might run, and he'll make a lot of noise, but he'll be snuffed out by the younger sociopaths.

We'll agree to disagree on this one. Trump runs the party. DeSantis is like the college football team that beats up on cupcakes and suddenly thinks he can beat 'bama (or Georgia this year). He's a poser. He's not the real thing. I post on these sites so I can get a read on what the nutters think. And there is nothing that I see that makes me believe Trump doesn't brush aside DeSantis like he did everyone else. These people are brainwashed.
 
As I have been posting these last couple years that HUBRIS will be their downfall we are now watching its completion. In two years they went from making statements like....." THIS is the END of the REPUBLICAN PARTY" and WE WILL DO WHATEVER WE WANT TO DO,... and lame ass Concart during covid making statements like....." THATS IT! Were all done fucking around now! Either take the shot or we will put you in CAMPS!"

Well,..........look at you now,.....you impotent sniveling little fucks. Just as I said,........in the end your own hubris brought you to youre knees. You will be judged as you once judged and treated as you once treated. PRAY that we are a better people than you were. ;)

Late-breaking nominee for "most ironic post of the year."
