We have legacy corporate media that have stood by and asked no questions when the Democrats say Trump, MAGA and Republicans are a “threat to democracy.”

All the while, Democrats seek to keep Trump off the ballot in several states, jail him, take his assets in New York, expand the Supreme Court, ban voter ID, censor speech and suppress opposing thought on social media.

Yet, somehow, they think they are saving democracy and Republicans are a “threat” to it?

What they have done is not much different from what Putin did in Russia. He just won his fifth term by a margin of 88% to 12%. Those 12% have been identified: Half of them died being dragged behind a car, and the other half were mysteriously pushed out of a 10th-floor window. Or, as they call it in Russia and in the Clinton household, natural causes.

You have to hand it to Putin: He’s the first to win a presidential election in a landslide without carrying Ohio or Michigan.
