Tuberville failed to mention that he’s personally prevented hundreds of officers from being promoted because he disagrees with a 2022 Pentagon policy.

    As of 2020, six parties have members in the federal parliament of Russia

    Do you think, by your measure, that America will ever achieve the same level of democracy as Russia?

    Or is it possible that your conclusion doesn’t follow from the premise?

      Looks like someone doesn’t know the difference between the US system and a parliamentary system.

        I’m sorry, do members of each party not sit in all branches of government and judiciary?

        Guess you were wrong with the usual exceptionalist yOu cAnT cOmpArE nonsense

          Please inform yourself about how parliamentary systems work. More than 2 parties are viable in that system because parties can form a coalition government with other parties that may agree on some things, in order to keep the “greater evil” party out of power.

          That’s not how it works in the US. You’re comparing apples to oranges.

      I never said more parties means more democracy. I did say prohibiting the primary opposition party from holding office was less democracy.

        You mean we should tolerate insurrectionists because we must hold up the principles of democracy until the bitter end, at which point they will eviscerate them?

        It’s a wildly bad take, I’ll be honest. And hopefully you see how you missed my point.

          You should ditch the electoral collage and legally dissolve both parties allowing the formation of new parties.
