Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) said the reelection of former President Trump would be the “end of democracy” in an interview released Saturday by The Guardian.
“It will be the end of democracy, functional democracy,” Sanders said in the interview.
The Vermont senator also said in the interview that he thinks that another round of Trump as the president will be a lot more extreme than the first.
“He’s made that clear,” Sanders said. “There’s a lot of personal bitterness, he’s a bitter man, having gone through four indictments, humiliated, he’s going to take it out on his enemies. We’ve got to explain to the American people what that means to them — what the collapse of American democracy will mean to all of us.”
Sanders’s words echo those President Biden made in a recent campaign speech during which he said that Trump’s return to the presidency would risk American democracy. The president highlighted the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol in an attempt to cement a point about Trump and other Republicans espousing a kind of extremism that was seen by the world on that day.
calling me silly doesn’t bolster your claim
As before, I didn’t call you silly, I called what you said silly. You are an incredibly dishonest person.
you are spitting hairs, another signal of intellectual dishonesty.
Calling me intellectually dishonest won’t make your out-of-context quotes and ridiculous misinterpretations less dishonest, sorry.
Also, from now on, every time you do the incredibly rude thing of replying to my comment twice, I will reply to at least one of those two comments with the word ‘papaya.’
if you don’t like people replying to your comments, maybe the Internet isn’t the right place for you
Papaya.
your intellectual dishonesty isn’t diminished by employing darvo.
Papaya.
