Trump a serious threat to democracy
NEW YORK NIGHTS
We should all pay close attention to President Trump’s actions in Portland and anywhere else he invades.
TV talking heads keep referring to his deployment of anonymous federal troops as using the “Nixon racial playbook” but we think he’s going “full-on Putin.”
It’s clear that Trump and the Republicans know they have no chance of winning a free, fair election … so they seem determined that they won’t have to. This outrage is nothing less than Trump’s attempt to avoid an election and install himself as “president for life,” like his heroes Putin and Xi.
We need to take it his threat to our democracy seriously. Claudia (Tenney) … should we assume this is fine with you?
