The vice president told a crowd of roughly 20,000 in Dallas that former President Donald J. Trump had said he would terminate the Constitution in a second term.
The vice president told a crowd of roughly 20,000 in Dallas that former President Donald J. Trump had said he would terminate the Constitution in a second term.
“Consider: Donald Trump has openly vowed if re-elected he’ll be a dictator on day one, that he will weaponize the Department of Justice against his political enemies, round up peaceful protesters and throw them out of our country and even, and even and I quote, ‘terminate’ the United States Constitution,” Ms. Harris said.
Are you suggesting that an attempt to halt the certification of a presidential election endorsed and encouraged by the sitting president in the hopes of avoiding abdicating power is equivalent to a protest over police brutality?
Legal warfare, I dont like it either, but the losers do this a lot.
Show me one time Democrats have attempted to stop the certification of an election by force. You can't just pretend this happens as a standard matter of course.
what was May 29th?
May 29th was a riot and not an insurrection because it had nothing to do with trying to overturn an election. Are you getting it yet?
In what way do claims of Russian interference - which has some truth to it btw - directly result in the overturning of an election?
Gore with all the counting shenanigans
Insane to present an example of an election being manipulated in Bush's favor as an attempt by Gore to overturn an election. How are we supposed to have a discussion when we clearly live in different realities?
How were they going to overturn an election by occupying a building?
The attack on the Capitol was part of a wider plan orchestrated by Trump and his backers. The fake electors, the call to Georgia's secretary of state, the baseless accusations of voter fraud... All of these combine to paint a pretty clear picture. Hell, the crowd at the Capitol called to hang Mike Pence because he refused to count the fake Certificates of Ascertainment.
I'm only responding for the benefit of others since I know you're just going to deny all of this or try to claim Democrats did the same or worse, but I really do hope you overcome your delusions someday.
Dismantling two and a half centuries of checks, balances, and protections isn't half as easy as you may think.
The jury is still out on whether he's capable enough to do it if he wins again. This said, who the fuck wants to take that chance?
Trump is also a selfish, amoral piece of shit that will pull us out of NATO and kowtow to Putin as he expands across Europe. He doesn't care about anyone but himself, and the foreign countries and businesses he's forever indebted to.
The only "upside" to this guy is the delusions he's selling his fanclub on. They're all lies, but America is infested with enough idiots that we're now having to deal with this situation.
I'm so ashamed of this segment of my countrymen. What absolute rubes Trump voters are.
If he is going to destroy the government why even bother with an election and just say he is permanent president? And of course you are flying the Ukraine flag.
Lol, yes it's very different. A dictator is not an unpopular person trying to win a democratic election, or refusing to step down from a position they were elected into and still have remaining time in their term. He's being stubborn, not a dictator.
A dictator would be someone who doesn't leave after losing an election, or who changes or removes the process of elections to remain in power. Among other things that Biden is absolutely not doing.
Maybe stop telling me what to do! You're giving commands like an English teacher and it's kind of annoying. You can do your own research, I'm not here to debate, just left a quick comment. Bye.
If you think I am embarrassed by people downvoting me on the forum with the worst community I have yet seen, no. lol. I go here for news stories, the community (you) sucks ass. Way too liberal (derogatory).
^ The comment of a person that has no real point to make.
You had every opportunity in this thread to actually point to 1 dictatorial or ultra conservative policy Joe has implemented, and by not providing even 1 example you're having the opposite of the intended effect.
If you're going to act like you know more than other people about something, it might be a good idea to have some real information on hand. Or, you could always just not say anything at all if you're uniformed.
Asking someone to be accurate (when they have admitted to knowing better) and asking someone to get into a debate with citations are two different things.
