About two-thirds of Canadians surveyed this month said American democracy cannot survive another four years of Donald Trump in the White House, and about half said the United States is on the way to becoming an authoritarian state, a poll released on Monday said.

@PenguinTD @sik0fewl Anyone on Trump’s “enemies list” faces death-threats for themselves and even their families, from MAGA cult members. The GOP is acknowledging this, but not trying to do anything about it. https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2024/1/11/2216659/-COWARD-J-D-Vance-says-the-quiet-part-out-loud-endorse-Orange-Jesus-or-fear-his-wrath

So all the GOP politicians just cowards in the face of death threats because 2nd amendment and people can just go assassinate them? Did I read this right as I thought GOP is all about small gov and protect your stuff/property with your guns. Like they don't have the slight courage to call it and fucking say this is a cult and I will defend my family like they defend their gun rights? Is US as a whole tolerate this type of behavior and not hunting down those and jail if they send out death threats while they swatting people from fake internet calls. What a hypocritical country I have to say.

edit: after reading the link entirely, I am glad to say that some people's head is still clear and thinking. But unfortunately the GOP political figures are disgraces of US's founding fathers, more like shit stains of democracy.
