By a foreign power.
I believe that is what we are witnessing right now with the Trump campaign and its enablers.

As the Putin - Trump connection began to emerge, I feel my vote will be as much to defend this country from russian aggression as it is to elect Hillary.
I will be there for Hillary and America November 8th.

(67,112 posts)too naive to get what's going on. They just haven't experienced this before. And the Deplorables are beyond hope, they feed the effort and are just far too dense and brainwashed to understand much and are proud of their ignorance and robotic stances.

One example Reid posited of the selective approach: Comeys methods in investigating Donald Trump and his campaigns possible ties to the
Russian government.

(18,652 posts)there's no way we would let Trump be king with no election, etc. Armed insurrection by Trump and his SS would be quickly put down...now. But if these people get a growing no. of judges, juries and legislators on their side, who knows what 10 more yrs. will bring?

(21,755 posts)Several interested parties work together to take over a country.
Trump: win at all cost fascist
Congress: same as above
Media: make false quivalecies constantly and cover your man's lies like they aren't 24/7
Supporters: threaten violence to make people afraid.

(2,535 posts)It disgust me to hear the Hungarian Immigrant telling us how superior the republicans were because he was in Hungary in 1956. Screw him. He is the one paying for the Ads on CNN
Rich, worried and buying ad time
He's not running for office. He's not part of a super PAC. He's not lobbying for or against any ballot measures.
But billionaire Thomas Peterffy is spending millions on television ads this election season with one cautionary message: Avoid socialism.
I know you have seen it on CNN

(11,949 posts)That is enough.
But there is more. A whole generation grew up believing the whole Reagan small government thing along side with their belief that Jesus hates the poor. I know as I used to be one of them.
They are incapable of seeing that no nation, especially in the last several hundred years has ever prospered without a strong government active in the economic life of their people. You will be more successful getting them to change the religious opinions than to believe that a government of Social Democrats(as opposed to straight up socialist) would make for a more prosperous nation.

Bucky
(54,068 posts)It's an incompetent campaign, led by a huckster, at best openly hornswaggled by a foreign power, and probably about to get 45% of the vote. Let that last thing sink in a bit.
Bucky
(54,068 posts)It's a peaceful takeover by a hostile power. Which in many ways is worse, much like a suicide is worse than a murder.
