        I could knock down every point listed. But I'll keep it simple. Saying we aren't on the verge of losing our democracy because we didn't in the past is like saying you'll never die because you've always recovered from an illness or injury in the past.

        "Don't worry, be happy. And while I have your attention, buy my book." All of those situations we survived was thanks to ppl who fought and bled against them. The need for "eternal vigilance" is for real. We cannot afford to assume that "it cannot happen here."

        The desire to make things look and feel normal is very pervasice among media elites like Brian and Megan. Both of whom just happen to be wealthy white folks with cushy jobs. For the rest of us, please ignore their pearl-clutching and #resist like your life depended on it.

        Of course you'd recommend a libertarian biz-school columnist as an expert on democracy & fascism. CNN's utter inability to distinguish between knowledge, experience & expertise on the one hand and bloviating ideological hucksterism on the other is exactly how we got here.

        Why do you insist on using a narrative model that fails to take into account how rapidly communications have shifted the paradigm. It’s like watching some trying to access the internet using ENIAC. The whole point of this-stop thinking as though this is a 2D situation-it’s not.

        You should look at what’s going on in NC. Not democracy.

        Well let's just wait and see if children are actually returned to all parents before we start saying "don't worry, nothing bad's gonna happen" A president attacking businesses, banning a religion (we all know it is a Muslim Ban) and creating detention "centers" apparently is fine

        To say nothing of media consolidation and control. The real question you should be asking is how does our democracy survive when the controlling party finds it to be an inconvenience to their plutocratic agenda?

        I didn't think that was very enlightening. She basically argued that a conspiracy theory that some are floating is not reasonable. We should now examine whether or not Obama tried to effectively sabotage Trump's presidency during the months leading up to the Inauguration.

        Utterly unconvincing. That we’ve been on the verge before but managed to preserve our democracy thus far doesn’t mean we aren’t now. By that logic, we’ll never be on the verge of losing our democracy until it’s gone.

        Modern day civil war? We evolve. We no longer fight while riding horses. It dows no mean horrible changes wont happen. Sorry but when we have a president who admires dictators and trashes our allies this didnt make me feel much better.

        So, with Kennedy retiring, it's a bit harder to make this argument.
