OPINION: TuckerCarlson: Democracy is not on the ballot, Joe Biden
I understand that democracy might not seem like a top priority right now, but we have seen throughout history and we see right now around the world what happens when you give up on democracy. You can see it in countries where the government tells you what books you can and cannot read. Countries where if you dissent, you get put in the jail. Countries where reporters are silenced.
Oh, he's slick. But it's hard to believe he really means that."I understand that democracy might not seem like a top priority right now," said Barack Obama. Really? The opposite is so obviously true.
What you are seeing unmistakably is democracy in action. That would be very obvious to anyone who believes that democracy means representation. But to those who believe that democracy means supporting the Democratic Party, no matter what it does, to those people, this moment has a very different feel. This moment feels like an emergency.
WHITE HOUSE CHIEF OF STAFF RON KLAIN: BIDEN WANTED TO 'ISSUE ONE FINAL WARNING' WITH SPEECH ON DEMOCRACYA rejection of Joe Biden's party, from their perspective, is the end of the system itself and they clearly believe that. They mean it. That's why the Biden administration has spent the last two years destroying the two prerequisites for American democracy. Those would be free speech and the rule of law. It's why they've silenced disobedient reporters.
That's how they think. If you really believe that you had a moral right to govern forever, and they really do believe that, you would see elections very differently. You wouldn't view the loss of aas the usual healthy rebalancing of American politics. Too far in one direction, swing back toward the other side, the kind of thing that has happened countless times in our U.S. democracy. That's what's supposed to happen, but you wouldn't see that.
