The Democrats claim that former President Donald Trump is a threat to democracy, that he will be a dictator if elected again, that he will take away Social Security and Medicare benefits and much more. This was the theme of the recent Democratic National Convention and is the entire platform of the Harris-Walz campaign.

How about some facts? The FBI, CIA and Department of Justice under then-President Barack Obama all backed the veracity of the Steele dossier, which called Mr. Trump a traitor and a Russian agent, knowing it was false and had been produced by the Democratic National Committee and the Hillary Clinton campaign. The FBI and DOJ knew the information on the Hunter Biden laptop was real and incriminating, not Russian “disinformation,” as the administration and its lapdog mainstream media claimed for years. This deliberate withholding of information to prevent Mr. Trump from being elected were the real threats to democracy.

The Democrats want total control of the government. Under President Biden, they have taken away free speech, equal justice for all and security and protection for U.S. citizens. They have prioritized massive funding for illegal immigrants while severely limiting support for Americans suffering from their abysmal policies. In essence, Mr. Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have abandoned the needs of our citizens. Democrats are the real threat to our democracy.
