Read up on Trump 2025, if you don't think democracy is at stake in the US. They're planning to turn every election into a republican primary at best.
Again, we've been hearing variations of the same fearmongering for decades, and we've already seen parallels with either party trying the same in Congress.
It's fortunate that we have a system of government which generally prevents authoritarian power-grab e.g. as it generally did last time around. Law is difficult to just ignore and Congress has a rich history of partisan circlejerk deadlock. But that's specific to concentrating executive branch power in the elected individual and seems to entirely miss democratic selection of individual.
This all seems to miss the point, though - even if it was correct this time, the best blue team seems to be able to come up with is the tired rah rah vote for us or vote for fascism crap yet again. It's as if they've recognized they aren't actually going to try to bring anything to the table that voters want, so in order to try and minimize criticism of those failures, they're just tripling down on wedge messaging.
Ok, so you are either ok with this or are another one of their useful idiots.
Alternatively, neither.
Any other bland nonsense you'd like to get off your chest? Some rabble rabble fascist, perhaps? It's amazing how the only defense you can provide to a criticism of your nonsense is mediocre insult.
They literally published a game plan for how they will capture all levels of government and make it almost impossible to lose power, in the same vein as Hungary. It's right in your face.
As I said, if you don't find it extremely concerning, you are either happy about it or you are a useful idiot.
