    “6 days away from losing our rule of law…”

    https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2022/11/03/nbc_historian_beschloss_this_country_could_be_consumed_by_violence_all_over_after_midterm_elections.html

    How is this guy not already an election denier?

    There are signs that may happen, may God forbid, that losers will be declared winners by fraudulent election officers, or secretary of state candidates, or governors, or state legislatures.

    if historians are allowed to write in this country, and if there are still free publishing houses and a free press, which I'm not certain of. But if that is true, a historian will say what was next date tonight and this week was the fact whether we will be a democracy in the future, whether our children will be arrested and conceivably killed -- we're on the edge of a brutal authoritarian system, and it could be a week away.

      I've said it before, the radical left (which, these days seems to be most of them) has a very poor understanding of what "democracy" means.

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        What this man lacks the self-awareness to understand, is that the most present threat to our democracy is the degree to which he and his millions of indoctrinated cohorts believe this existential threat narrative.

        I only state fact, when I state that humans, when under existential threat, are capable of any act of destruction. This man and the millions like him, self identify as people who would be on board with any act of destruction to avoid this religious doomsday belief they have. That is the threat our country faces.

        Education is extremely important.

          CHRIS HAYES: Yeah. If you look to our own history, of course, the Jim Crow South was a one-party state for decades. Within the structure of what we call American democracy, though, it was essentially an authoritarian one-party state within the state.

          What party was that again? Oh yeah…
