Letter: U.S. democracy not in danger | Letters to the Editor | postandcourier.com – The Post and Courier

Brookings Institute member and Washington Post columnist E. J. Dionne proves once again how wrong leftist media can be: Democracy faces two threats. Trump is only one of them, published in the Aiken Standard on Nov. 29.

Those who claim Trump threatens democracy overestimate his power and underestimate the Constitution. As we learned in grade school (before they switched to DEI) our federal government has a system of checks and balances which our Founding Fathers well versed in tyranny made a cornerstone of federal government. Whoever wins in November will not be a threat to American democracy.

Dionne then jumps to the frequent Democratic battle cry of voting restrictions. Every citizen has and should have the right to vote but with proper documentation at a legitimate voting site. The next election and those in the future will be hampered by identification standards due to the unchecked migration of over 12 million illegal migrants. They should not be allowed to vote until they have been educated and processed as American citizens.

In the meantime, American democracy will soon reach its 250th anniversary. It is not an experiment. And the left should desist with claims that it is endangered.
