The national guard out on mass and the perpetrators of last weeks violence suddenly aware that their leader had chosen not to pardon them. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Jingthing Posted January 21, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 21, 2021 (edited) 6 hours ago, Tug said: We are back!!hopefully wiser for our brush with a coup and a fascist takeover of our democracy back to offering a hand up not a push down contributing to the common good were possible a good day for all Back for a time but now we know how incredibly fragile American democracy is and how close it came to being destroyed by the movement of an anti democratic pro authoritarian demagogue con man. The white supremacist demagogue and the perverted ideas he represents are still out there in numbers among the American electorate. They will try again. Decent democracy loving Americans should not get too comfortable with this recent victory. The struggle to keep it ain't over.

Popular Post TallGuyJohninBKK Posted January 21, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 21, 2021 10 hours ago, webfact said: SPANISH PRIME MINISTER PEDRO SANCHEZ, SPEAKING AT A PUBLIC EVENT "The (election) victory of Biden represents the victory of democracy over the ultra-right and its three methods, the massive deception, the national division and the abuse, even violent, of democratic institutions... Five years ago, we thought Trump was a bad joke, but five years later we realized he jeopardized nothing less than the world's most powerful democracy." An exceptionally apt, articulate, piercing assessment by the Spanish PM, telling it like it is. I only wish we had heard such a clear-headed, concise assessment from more of the U.S. politicians during Trump's tenure. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 (edited) To expand on my last post about our recent grim lesson on the fragility of American democracy. https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2021/01/20/democracy-survived-barely/ "Democracy survived, barely" World leaders noticed too. The authoritarians among them were no doubt hoping that American democracy would fall. Happily it didn't, at least yet.
