WaPo: Just 52 percent of Biden voters view the GOP as a major threat to democracy

Here’s another case of Democrat candidates (and President Joe Biden) choosing the wrong issues to focus on before the midterm elections. Even Biden’s infamous “Red Speech” warning the country of the danger of “extreme MAGA” hasn’t managed to move the needle on people viewing the GOP as a threat to democracy itself. We’ve actually gotten sick of hearing about how the upcoming election will be the deciding factor on which the nation will choose democracy or fascism. People on the Left actually have themselves convinced that if Republicans take the White House in 2024, there will never be another election.

Washington Post senior political reporter Aaron Blake seems to be in disbelief:

We like the emphasis around Democrats, as if independents are just flat-out wrong no matter what WaPo does to convince them otherwise.

I'm sorry this is happening to you

I think you meant:

"Because of the Jan. 6 hearings …"

— instead of —

"Despite the Jan. 6 hearings …"

Getting rid of the legislative filibuster is a threat to democracy. Stacking the Supreme Court is a threat to Democracy. Using lawfare to go after political enemies is a threat to Democracy. There are an awful lot of threats to Democracy floating around these days.

What a disappointment to the Washington Post.

Maybe they're on to something you just can't see.

And those independents are absolutely right.

The Post is trying so hard to blame voters for not listening to them.
I am actually surprised they published this.

Well, it isn’t the GOP who is calling for court packing, abolishing the electoral college and equal state representation in the Senate, nuking the filibuster, letting just anyone "vote" even if they aren’t even a citizen of this country, or cancelling political dissidents.

Wait, wait… after nearly two straight years of a blatant attempt to criminalize political opposition, some voters don't trust Democrats to be responsible guardians of democracy?

Gee Aaron, it’s almost like the people don’t believe what you’re telling them. Any idea why that might be?

Now do Democrat election deniers

— Paul Pelosi's Drink in Hand (@BigDongDeSantis) October 19, 2022

Whoever put together that 10-minute video of Democrats saying the 2016 election was illegitimate deserves a pat on the back. Maybe a lot of people voted for Biden out of Russia fatigue and regret it now that inflation is out of control.
