Former President Barack Obama, and his “wingman” ex-Attorney General Eric Holder, recently argued that the Democrats’ partisan takeover of U.S. elections was needed in order to prevent another Capitol riot at the Electoral College.
“The violence that occurred in the US Capitol on January 6, just a few months ago, should remind us that we can’t take our democracy for granted,” Obama said on grassroots conference call for the National Democratic Redistricting Committee. “Around the world, we have seen once vibrant democracies go into reverse, locking in power for a small group of powerful autocrats and business interests and locking out of the political process dissidents and protestors and opposition parties and the voices of ordinary people.”
“It is happening in other places around the world and these impulses have crept into the United States,” Obama argued. “We are not immune from some of these efforts to weaken our democracy.”
