Undermining Democracy

A few things I heard from your representives bothered me today.

1. “Does Joe Biden understand how at risk our democracy is today?” Answer: No, he has other prioriities at this time!

If you have not figured out, authoritarian, religious fascist patriarchs are masters at deception. They have had hundreds of years experience at lying, revising history and spreading propaganda. As long as republicans are allowed to spread the big lie in their propaganda media, every day, democracy becomes more at risk. Every day the “recount” in Arizona is allowed to continue, democracy is more at risk. Every time republicans double down on their outrageous behavior and democrats do nothing to stop them, democracy is more at risk. They play the long game.

2. Does Joe Biden plan to change his enabling policies on Netanyahu and Israel?”

Answer; “No, his plate is full dealing with domestic messes (created by Republicans) to change his policies on the conflict in the Middle East.”

If your spokespeople is accurate about this, then you do not understand the real problem. Authoritarian leaders, Religious leaders and patriarchs benefit from incessant war. Israel is in the middle of sorting out a new government because Netanyahu is so corrupt. The conflict in Israel benefits Netanyahu. A few Jewish people have lost their lives, hundreds of Muslims have died in this most current religious conflict. Additionslly, #DonaldTrump and republicans benefit because it sucks up media oxygen and overshadows everything good Democrats are doing.

Republicans are now talking about “splitting” into two parties, one for the “moral,” decent conservatives and one for the Trump followers. They are “metastasizing” to peal off democrats votes to double down on undermining democracy, all the while, claiming the problem is Trump, not their Scorched Earth policies.

Guess who is funding the “new” Republican Party, same people as the “Trump” Republican Party? Federalists, Churches, Koch’s, Patriarchs!

There are no decent conservatives.

They all want to undermine democrats (and therefore democracy) while gaslighting that we need them for democracy to survive and thrive. Every action they take leads to the same end.

Undermining Democracy. It’s another fear tactic targeting democratic voters and benefiting conservatives.
