 Senate Democrat: GOP presidential candidates want to end democracy
by Miranda Nazzaro - 01/22/24 8:42 AM ET

Sen. Maggie Hassan (D-N.H.) on Sunday dug into the GOP presidential candidates, claiming the group of three — at the time — White House hopefuls would “all undermine democracy.”

Speaking on NBC’s “Meet The Press” just hours before Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) suspended his presidential bid, Hassan argued his and former United Nations ambassador Nikki Haley’s pledge to support the eventual GOP nominee, even if it is former President Trump, shows a GOP primary field that would disregard the law.

“Look, Trump is very likely to win the nomination from everything we’re seeing. But, I think people need to be really clear here, regardless of which Republican wins the nomination — whether it is Haley, or DeSantis or Trump — they are all committed to rolling this country backwards, to undermining democracy,” Hassan said Sunday morning.

Hassan pointed to a series of past actions and remarks that show Trump “advocates violence,” including remarks in November in which he compared his political enemies to “vermin” who needed to be exposed. The comment drew backlash and comparisons to rhetoric of a dictator.

DeSantis wanting to end democracy?  Nothing could be further than the truth.

I trust neither Trump nor Haley, but I distrust Haley more so.  She is the leftists' chosen one.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

They need to stop using that word

She probably doesn’t even know what democracy means. it’s just a word they’re going to repeat over and over again against Trump
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.
