Our democracy is a sham under trump (#3456)

     The gall it must take to be as dumb as trump is and for him to think he is smarter than the rest of us. I am astounded that trump is still in power yet not astounded as well. His republican enablers are still protecting the liar in chief and we must do what must be done through our vote. It does now, except for a hope from Mueller, come down to us the voter. 46.9% of us didn't bother to vote in the 2016 election and if we don't change that trend toward a much lesser percentage we will find that our democracy will be replaced with a dictatorship of sorts. Enough is now known about the clown trump and his republican partners to understand the stakes come November 6th.
     Not only are our world allies being dismissed and condescended to by a dolt but we are being aligned more closely with our enemies to democracy. This is what trump and the republican party is doing. Remaking us into the image of an authoritarian state. Life as we know it will continue to change for the worse and we like the metaphorical frogs in the slowly boiling pot while stay oblivious to our democracy being torn apart. The sheer audacity of our appointed leader working to undermine the values of democracy right before our eyes and then telling us that he isn't is consistent with his inability to be intelligent about his lies and his treason. Yet his republican party refuses to do anything to stop him.
     So again, it is down to us the voters to stop him and his conspirators running as republicans in the upcoming election. There is no need to distinguish between good republicans and bad republicans because there just aren't any good republicans left. They all fall in line behind their leader who is by all accounts unworthy of being followed unless one wants to be a conman and a traitor. I don't use these words to describe trump and his republican party lightly. But in the moment I take to pause and consider my word choices, I see no other way to word it other than to call it what it is. I see the evidence before my eyes and here the lies coming from their mouths so in light of that I don't need an interpreter to tell me what the conclusion is and for the rest of you who see the same things you must be on the same page with me and know that our democracy is being dismantled right before our eyes.
