hclasvegas: Is the greatest risk to democracy?

Oh, I know, I know: the guy who continues to tell the big lie that he actually won an election that he clearly lost, who despite losing sixty court challenges of the election results and recounts in multiple states refused to concede defeat and refused to abide by the traditional peaceful transfer of power but, instead, invited a mob to come to Washington DC on the day that the electoral ballots were to be counted and then sent that mob to the nation's Capitol to “stop the steal" and "take back their country.”

The guy who told the mob he angered that the vice president didn't do what was right and had failed them, inciting them to chant “Hang Mike Pence!” as they searched the Capitol for him, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and other congressmen and congresswomen to kidnap or harm them.

The guy who told the mob of rioters who beat police, pepper- and bear-sprayed them, severely injured them, and ran through the Capitol in search of other victims that he loved them... but only after standing by for hours doing nothing, watching the mayhem on television.

The guy who took dozens of cartons of government-owned material containing 197 of the nation's most highly-classified intelligence documents -- including Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI), Special Access Program (SAP) markings, and a plan for military action against Iran.

The guy who suggested “the termination of all rules ... even those found in the Constitution.”

The guy who called American war dead “suckers” and “losers.”

The guy who refused to attend his successor's inauguration.

The guy who dozens of people who worked for him at the highest levels say is a threat to democracy, including his former Defense Secretary Mark Esper, his own former vice president Mike Pence, former Trump White House communications director Alyssa Farah Griffin and Cassidy Hutchinson, a former top aide to Trump chief of staff Mark Meadows.

Plus John Kelly, Trump’s former chief of staff, Olivia Troye, a former Pence adviser who left the White House in 2020, and former press secretary Stephanie Grisham.

Even Bill Barr, Trump’s former attorney general.

You know, the guy who regularly compares himself to Jesus and just said he'll become a ‘Modern Day Nelson Mandela’.

So, yeah, I'm gonna' go with that guy, Donald John.

There has never been an individual more dangerous to democracy in the modern history of the United States than Donald John.

Thanks for asking.
