Seattle Colleges is defending a tax-payer-funded,"get out the vote," event that exclusively criticized the former president, claiming Donald Trump is a threat to democracy. is defending a tax-payer-funded, “get out the vote,” event that exclusively criticized the former president, claiming Donald Trump is a threat to democracy. Itas a “momentous” and “non-partisan” discussion with scholarly information on the purported threat to our democracy.
“I realize that in the short span of 11 months, I could be joining protesters across the country, decrying the House of Representatives voting Trump in as president after challenging electors in mainly majority Black and Brown American precincts,” Livingston said without any context or explanation. Seattle Colleges’ presentation featured a professor who attempted to define democracy in a mostly inoffensive presentation before declaring the Electoral College as “obviously unfair.”
“So these are insiders in that party, in the Republican party saying, ‘We got to stop this. This is a threat to democracy,'” Livingston said.. But Livingston’s inclusion of Shapiro appears based on the fact that he once quoted a professor as an authority on authoritarianism. Since that professor said Trump is a threat to democracy, Livingston said Shapiro’s reference to the professor is “dispositive” that Trump really is a threat to democracy.
If Livingston asked for a report on the meeting, his students would have either had to attend live or watch a recording of the video. While a Seattle Colleges spokesperson said students were not required to attend, he did not explain why a student would have to submit a report about the event. Livingston did not respond to multiple requests for comment, perhaps too concerned with the future of democracy rendering him unable to hit reply. A Seattle Colleges spokesperson, however, defended the event. Even though the event exclusively targeted Trump, spokesperson Adam Russell said it didn’t take sides.
