The problem for DC Dems is that the liberal rhetoric peaked too soon. Once everybody was warned that they’d be killed off by tax cuts and net neutrality, the bar was set high. However, Sen. Chuck Schumer’s still trying to raise it, this time as it concerns ex CIA Director John Brennan losing his security clearance:
Schumer blasts Trump over security clearances: This is "exactly what goes on in dictatorships" https://t.co/ye8AZDhKN0 pic.twitter.com/2o5JyQAet0

No, Schumer’s not prone to wild exaggeration, why do you ask?
“The abuse of the powers of public office to silence critics, punish political enemies is exactly what goes on in dictatorships in banana republics and we’re not one of those, thank god,” Schumer said from the Senate floor.
These days, Brennan is free to go on television almost every night slamming Trump — just the kind of thing that would be allowed to happen in a dictatorship! *Eye roll*

It’s true. Hitler got tired of officials comparing him to Hitler so he revoked their clearances. https://t.co/LyZZDzSaHX

@chuckschumer what idiocy.
Security clearance is a privilege not a right. If it were a dictatorship you wouldn't be constantly yapping about dictatorships. https://t.co/kWxcUopaEb— DeplorableDregPoppinator (@tea0704) August 20, 2018
pretty sure a dictator would execute them or put them in prison. https://t.co/CFtyWCfef3

Don’t bother Schumer with reality because he has no interest in it.
