Do you want a Democracy or a Dictatorship?

[Billo_Really]

/——/ Oh please, stop with the melodrama. It’s tiresome. With three equal but separate branches of government no one can upturn the country into a monarchy.
You sound like an idiot.

Listen whore, Trump already has Congressional Republicans doing exactly what he says. He also has SCOTUS doing what he said. That right there implies we have lost 2 of our checks and balances if Trump gets elected.

my vote is for democracy.

after years of "democracy vs republic?" rhetoric, they have finally unmasked the choice we really have.

norwegen seems to have confused "republic" with "cult of personality.'

We had a "cult of personality" bordering on dictatorship with Obama;

In December 2007 presidential candidate Barack Obama told The Boston Globe that if he won the 2008 election, he would enter the White House committed to rolling back the sort of overreaching executive power that had characterized the presidency of George W. Bush. "The President is not above the law," Obama insisted.

Once elected, however, President Obama began to sing a different sort of tune. "We're not just going to be waiting for legislation," Obama announced. "I've got a pen and I've got a phone…and I can use that pen to sign executive orders and take executive actions and administrative actions."

Obama's pen and phone did not sit idle. For example, despite the fact that the Constitution grants Congress, not the president, the authority "to declare war," Obama unilaterally declared war on Libya in 2011. Similarly, despite the fact that the Constitution requires the Senate to confirm all presidential appointments to high office, except in those limited circumstances in which the Senate is not available to act because it is in recess, Obama unilaterally placed multiple officials in high office without senatorial approval during a period in which the Senate was still in session.

This ignoring the Constitution and abuse of Executive power continues with puppet Biden.

Well, I will say, we need more than just two parties.

We have more than just two parties. We need VOTERS with the backbone to vote for someone besides the two party candidates. Voters who aren't so easily frightened into voting for bad candidates on purpose.

I agree.

 

[martybegan]

Then you are officially batshit crazy!

LOL, Look in the mirror, oxygen thief.

 

[mudwhistle]

We all have the same rights. No matter whether your party is in power or not, everyone has the same rights.

That will change if Trump gets elected.

WRONG!!!!!!

Right now Democrats have more rights than any Republican.

 

[Orangecat]

In what way?

Every way possible, obviously.

 

[Orangecat]

So you refuse to answer the question?

Your comprehension issues aren’t my problem, Bildo.

 

[Orangecat]

The difference between you and me, is that I don't have to edit the shit out of your post to make you look like a moron.

I only edited it to highlight your misspelling, dumbo.

wesponized

F’n moron.

 

[Crepitus]

in California gay marriage was voted against twice by the majority of people.....so why was it overturned twice?.....what happened to that majority making the decisions?...

Feel free to post that case up.

 

[Crepitus]

No

But you just said we were.

 

[Orangecat]

But you just said we were.

Voting on representatives to your republic doesn’t make you a democracy. Try looking up what the US government is, kid.

 

[Crepitus]

You words "we use the Democratic process to elect..."

 

[Orangecat]

You words "we use the Democratic process to elect..."

Yes, we use the process to elect representatives to our republic. We are not a democracy. 51% of voters cannot reinstate slavery. Think better, son.

 

[playtime]

who are 2 f'n traitors wanting a dictatorship?

 

[Harry Dresden]

Feel free to post that case up.

are you saying this never happened?.....

Trump is an outlaw. A felon. Get the pee cup.

A Cup That Will Block the Kangaroos Pissing on Him

 

[The Sage of Main Street]

Neither. This is a Republic.

Democrats call communism a Democracy.

That's why they resorted to changing the word from communism to Democratic-Socialism.

Democrats are just cult members. It's difficult, if not impossible for them to go against their cult by admitting the truth.

Most of them feel that being honest helps Trump in some way....and they can't have that.

All Communist Nations Call Themselves "Republics." Welcome to the Club.

 

[Toro]

MAGA wants a dictatorship because they keep losing LOL

 

[The Sage of Main Street]

So which is it? Rule of law or majority rule?

The Rule of Law Is the Rule of Lawyers
