It's so insane watching America devolve like this.
An orange fascist ~~had~~ has a chance of winning
They place an old man as the only challenger
Everyone hopes that democracy will survive.
It's like watching a train on fire headed to a cliff with a third of people with flame throwers, a third with water hoses and the remaining third not doing anything and hoping that they'll survive.
Democracy already died with the SCOTUS decision a few days ago. Biden is a monarch. The only question is whether he will find the balls to use his power to remake the court and force it to turn us back into a democracy, or whether he's too weak and in denial and will lose to Trump, who will use all that autocratic power to full effect if he gets it.
We know he won't do anything because, at the core of the party, Democrats don't care about democracy. They are so convinced that Republicans aren't serious about throwing them in prison and executing their enemies. If Biden loses in November, they will find out.
