      This is a totally unfair and inaccurate comment. He already tore apart democracy when he deliberately incited jan 6th. Please give the megalomaniac appropriate credit in future

      The fact that he can do all of this and face zero opposition within government and didn’t even get punished once he was out of office (despite popular demand) kind of proves you didn’t have a democracy to begin with.

      Where was democracy when Bush’s brother stole the election for him?

      He tried his damndest to tear apart democracy back then too. It’s just that there were still some safeguards in place, and people running things who weren’t his sycophants. His first term would’ve gone exactly like this if he’d been able to. He wasn’t a nuisance. He’s an extremely dangerous man.
