So let me get this straight: you’re gonna keep holding this competition for power, and the results will either be democracy or the end of democracy, instead of just imprisoning the guy who’s threatening to end democracy? I don’t get it. It seems very inefficient and only something a poor leader would allow.
If my team preserves democracy and the other team does not, and I currently hold power, why would I allow the other team even the remotest possibility of gaining power? And why are you assuming that Biden WILL win? What happens if he doesn’t? Why hasn’t he provided any contingency plans for if he loses? He hasn’t installed anyone in important positions or pass laws that will protect democracy in case he loses. It seems to me that if Biden loses, he will simply retreat to a beach house and leave us to fend for ourselves.
