Given Donald Trump’s hostility toward democracy, it’s worth pausing when he asks supporters, "Why are we having an election?”
By all appearances, Donald Trump really doesn’t like it when Democrats describe him as a threat to democracy, and yet, the Republican keeps saying things that reflect a degree of animosity toward the American system of government.
Take the former president’s rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday, for example. The New York Times reported:
Trump said polls suggested he was at “93 percent” although it was not clear what that number was referring to. The former president said he responded by saying: “So why are we having an election? They didn’t have an election. Why are we having an election?”
He should be disqualified for even acting like he’s going to be a dictator. If you can’t understand the point of democracy, you’re not qualified to be President.
He is disqualified as per the 14th amendment and the legal fact found in Colorado that he engaged in insurrection. But it needs court enforcement.
