The republicans come up with the next boogeyman and the democrats jam some new unpopular shill down our throat "or else we lose democracy" and so on until people stop putting up with it because nothing ever gets better and we do actually lose democracy.
What does "stop putting up with it" look like?
Staying home instead of voting because nothing ever gets better anyway and the republicans get their dictatorship.
Gotcha... Yeah I think that's basically where we're at now
Yeah if not we're way too close to it for comfort.
