    I've yet to figure out how Trump is so successful at terrifying some people.

    He's been POTUS. Last time I looked, the government wasn't overthrown.

    Some of his initiatives were upheld in court. Some weren't. Some of his projects and policies made it through the congressional process to become law. Some didn't.

    I don't remember any nights where political rivals were arrested or murdered. Where people who disagreed with Trump were thrown in jail.

    Fact is, I've seen more lawfare and political persecution from the Biden Administration, than happened in the Trump Administration. But the NYT and the Post are in the tank for Biden, and they provide political cover.

      1. Trump is a threat to democracy
      2. No he's not
      3. Rather than explaining why #1 is true, tell us why #2 is true.

      Is that the argument?

      It might be.

      On the other hand, I don’t see Trumpff as a threat to democracy or becoming a dictator. In the first instance he can’t seem to keep staff. Dictators need mindless minions of varying degrees of competence. Trump’s staff all seem to resign after brief tenures and none to happy with his crassness and lack of sound judgement. In the second instance, no one with half a brain listens to him or is convinced he truly is the American Moses he thinks he is.

      Americans (and the world) can therefore rest easy because Master Corporal “Bone-spurs” Trump sure as hell ain’t a candidate ever to become the American Caesar

      Elbows up!
