[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a Canadian and our international eyes are watching what is happening in the US with the new administration. I know many of you on DCUM are in disagreement for how your leadership is handling domestic and international politics. I never imagined that the US would be on the list for potentially losing their democratic status. I know many of you care about this possible demotion, and maybe this will help mobilize your Democrat and Independent voters. I would love your feedback.

This was a little misleading. The US is at risk of being downgraded to the same status as Canada.

The US Constitutional Framers were well aware that demagogues like Trump would appear from time to time and structured the Constitution to contain them.

Trump can issue all the EOs he wants, but any one of them can be shot down by a federal judge. Don't fall for the political theatrics. Trump loves to create chaos and drama. Much of Trump's nonsense will be rolled back by the independent judiciary. It will just take time for the judicial process to catch up.

There is zero chance that Trump will be able to take over as an autocrat. [/quote]
