and probably 10 out of 10 democrats feel that way, evidenced by every political riot from the last 35 years except january 6 - anti police riots, black lives matter, antifa, any of that ring a bell?

Trump didn’t change the current GOP, he revealed it. To look the other way is to deny the grave danger to democracy that is the truth of the Republican Party.

Sure Jan,
Trump instilled doubt in the "rigged" election, pressured officials, installed DeJoy, admitted he wouldn't concede, appointed someone in the Supreme Court who he believed would help overturn the results, and fomented the violent attempted putsch#^&at the Capitol. It was all Trump.
Even Ivanka says so

we were ALL in grave danger. Grave.

the fact that the lefty riots last summer killed infinitely more people ( since the january 6 idiots killed zero), and caused billions more in property damage, matters not.

72% of Americans believe the people involved in the attack on the Capitol were “threatening democracy” and most believe Trump is responsible. I think you’re underestimating how much people want to see accountability.

He obviously has a job that requires math skills, but not critical thinking.
This is demonstrated by his claims that people are moving from blue states to red states because they are less “wasteful”
If that were true Louisiana and the rest of the ten lowest rated states, all red, would be attracting a lot more people, most Americans want a centrist political agenda not the fascism Jim supports.
But he doesn’t really like Trump and he’s for gay something, as long as they aren’t women politicians.

If voters don’t believe that an attempt to overthrow the republic by the sitting president is more important than inflation, then maybe they neither want nor deserve the republic.

trump wanted to undo the free election. that’s very very bad, but thank god it never came
close to happening. what you can’t explain, is why it wasn’t equally bad when elected democrats attempted to do the same thing after the 2016 election, when they asked electors not to vote for him and then challenged he results of a few states with zero basis to do so.

please explain why it was bad when trump did it, but no biggie when your side did it.

trump
told those idiots to march “peacefully and patriotically” to the capital, and he was impeached. and you have been clutching your pearls ever since.

maxine waters told
liberals to hound and harass those in trumps cabinet until they knew “they aren’t welcome anywhere, anytime”, and you could care less.

countless democrats expressed explicit support for the 2020 riots and that’s no big deal.

but why didn’t any of you care, when after the 2016 election, democrats also tried to subvert the results of. free and fair election? many several
democrats asked the electors but to cast their votes for trump, and they objected to the electors in several states casting their votes for trump.

no one here cared. Why is that?

Answer - it’s ok to all of you, when democrats fight dirty. you only care when republicans do it.

When trump makes baseless claims that the 2020 election wasn’t fair, that’s bad because he’s undermining faith in the system. when stacey abrams does the same
thing, it’s not worth mentioning, because shut up.

but thank god it never happened that’s a BS answer

trump didn’t get as far as taking the clothes off. it was never, ever going to happen. shame on him for even thinking about it, but it showed that our system works. trump couldn’t do it, and obviously the morons who stormed the capital had
no chance of accomplishing anything.

some democrats tried to undo the 2016 election, and you didn’t give a damn. why?

you keep saying that. but you never specify why the equivalency is false. because you don’t even know what the expression means.

no two events are identical in every way. that doesn’t mean they aren’t comparable.

in 2016, trump won a free election. some democrats ( not biden, to his credit) tried to get the electors to not vote for trump. that’s exactly what they did, and you and spence didn’t care. which means your concern today over what trump did, is fake.

can’t have it both ways.

i think what democrats did then, and what trump did last year, we’re repugnant. i’m consistent. you guys aren’t, because you can’t criticize democrats, never. fine. prepare for the reckoning that’s coming in november.

Democracy in Hungary has been backsliding under Mr. Orban, whose efforts to consolidate power have caused consternation in the European Union.

"Far-Right"--that's a convenient rather meaningless label--sort of like how "fascism" is used to describe politics one doesn't like.

Democracy in Hungary has been backsliding under Mr. Orban,

Hungarians would be who decide if their Democracy is "backsliding"--your opinion, and that of your sources, notwithstanding.

whose efforts to consolidate power have caused consternation in the European Union.

Yikes, "consternation in the European Union." Is consternation there a new phenomenon? It seems to have been consterned for a long time. Since its inception, there have been predictions that it would fall apart. On the other hand, maybe that's a good sign. A healthy "democracy" should have good levels of consternation. Lockstep is a road to dictatorship.

And as far as consolidating power goes, that seems to be the norm for political parties. You don't think that Democrats spend "efforts to consolidate power?

democrats, like trump, lost a fair election, and attempted to overturn it. how can you deny that?! they asked electors to not vote for the guy who won, end then they objected to the electors who a actually cast their votes for trump.

Some of us said it protesting was good, violence was bad, whether D or R and they were excoriated on the "muhhh BOTH SIDES" thing.

But Jan 6th was a Mostly Peaceful Protest.
