[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][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.

You seem to be saying that an election resulting in an outcome you didn’t want is tantamount to the dismantling of democracy. Interesting. [/quote]

So tired of your doublespeak

Trump is dismantling democracy [/quote]

We live in a city where the elected officials are so bad, DC voters approved a referendum on ranked choice voting and the council just said "lol, no" and most people who live here supported a candidate that didn't get a single primary vote. But it's Trump that's a threat to democracy...[/quote]

Uh yes

Tough for you to think of the larger picture?

The bigger picture being there isn't a lot of democracy to save out there, as most people only care for it when it gets them what they want.[/quote]

If the PRESIDENT of the UNITED STATES doesn't support democracy, the rest doesn't matter
Get it?

[b]I think you actually can argue he's more in tune with democracy than most others[/b]. People voted for change and he's delivering change. The people upset are upset because he's doing what people voted for.

This thread and those like it are basically people venting that people are actually getting what they want instead of being blocked by bureaucratic hurdles. Leaving people like you to essentially argue that giving people what they want and fixing problems is bad. Not exactly the winning argument for democracy you think it is.[/quote]

This is not DEMOCRACY

And if he thinks he can have his way with the tax dollars of those that don't support him he has another thing coming

- buddying up with Russia and alienating our allies

- destroying our economy

- hiring two bit wannabe dictator Musk who can't even run a successful company of his own with our being propped up to "overhaul" our government with his techno teens

- defrauding the elderly and veterans

- dismantling US intellectual supremacy ( you know MAGA doesn't know crap about this)

People voted for Trump 1.0, not this dictator. Let's see if they actually get democracy ( the people's voice) before Trump institutes the law that you can't criticize him

And again, you are ridiculous [/quote]
