    Yup. American democracy is going to be dead after this election.

    I wonder how much of that project 2025 will be implemented.

      How alive is it when the ‘democratic’ candidate was anointed instead of voted for through a democratic process? I’m not a Trump fan at all but at least he was chosen by the people.

        Deligates DID elect her, and they did so because the party members they represent wanted her to take over, there was 5+ internal polls sent to registered democrats, this didn’t SUDDENLY happen, it was weeks of polling and campaigning. A party doesn’t need to have a public primary to select a candidate.
