Is democracy now dead in the USA?
Has Trump and MAGA permanently seized control?
Have they completely dismantled the democratic system and all checks and balances?
Looks like it to me!
Since taking office Trump has sacked anyone who comes up with the ‘wrong’ figures or supports the ‘wrong’ side.
Reports of the economy are rigged!
Reports of price rises are misinformation!
Trump has dismissed the Bureau of Labor Statistics commissioner following unfavorable jobs data, accusing her of “rigging” numbers, and engineered a settlement with Columbia University that critics viewed as capitulation.
He has put in place ‘sympathetic’ officials in all electoral positions. (I remember how he instructed ( In an hour-long phone call with Georgia Secretary of State) Brad Raffensperger) to find more votes and he refused – these people won’t refuse!). How can anybody now have any faith in the electoral system?
He regards anybody who supports the Democratic liberal position as being un-American and an enemy of the state.
Trump has dramatically accelerated efforts to centralize power. These include pardoning January 6 rioters, attacking judicial independence, purging and politicizing federal institutions, encouraging gerrymandering, suppressing dissent, and targeting media and cultural institutions.
He’s effectively taken over all the institutions that provide unbiased information and checks and balances.
This is what dictators do!
Is America now a dictatorship? Is there already no way back?
Sounds like the definition of fascism.
It is! I find it scary to think that so many Americans are alright with this! It’s not just Trump. There is a whole bunch of really nasty fascists behind him. Trump is just the front of a really bad Nazi movement.
