We are living through the welting of our democracy. Soon it will be like living through the fall of Rome.

This is a sober and timely warning. We have not updated our governance structure and it needs retooling. Supreme Court limits, campaign contribution limits, borrowing limits are all necessary IMO.

We're running liberal (Progressive) Democracy now. Progressivism a top-down system. Progressivism is Otto Van Bismarck's Prussian model of Cameralism. It is an authoritarian monarchial framework that the progressives imported during the Progressive Era to control us and it gave us 40 years of Administrative State Tyranny between 1984-2024 under the Chevron doctorate😡

I keep thinking there must be a better system than the unitary executive presidency we have which has led us so astray.

The true test is what Dems would REVERSE if and when they take back the presidency. Biden actually perpetuated much of Trump’s policies

It looks like the dream is over, the current era is moving quite fast and the institutions were kept outdated for so long to catch up...Trusting in the good will and decorum of the leaders only, it's a formula ready to fail at any moment and here we are because the so-called Check and Balance are working very poorly at best.

democracies are always at risk for erosion or failure and that is why it is always a process of implementation... voting is only one manifestation and one dimension that in itself needs constant attention

Watergate was a minor infraction compared to what is happening on almost a daily basis under the current administration.

I watched democracy decay when the Biden administration was very lax on enforcing the laws made by Congress about our national sovereignty and leaving the border, essentially open for illegal immigrants to come through. I also watched democracy decay during Covid when people were getting arrested for being at the beach yet politicians were still able to go out to fancy restaurants and gatherings. I watched it further decay from censorship during the Biden administration, which has now been proven and confirmed by Facebook and Google.

federations are the best, with power shared between states and central governments in a way that prevents the overarching power of 1 layer from erasing another.

Been abused since before Trump. Biden ignored all immigration laws and did what he wanted. We have laws for everything already yet people break them all the time

Liberalism was an effective tool of the merchant class against the monarchical military caste. Now it’s the workers vs the merchant class. Times have changed.
