Trump's attack on democracy (link + commentary).
This Is the link I shared on Facebook. It is from a The Washington Post article by Dan Balz entitled
“Trump blatantly seeks to undermine democracy” (opens in new page)
Below are the responses from Facebook family.
Facebook Dialogues
My voice has moved mostly off Facebook for a few reasons. I miss interacting with voices of intelligence and compassion.
I generally lean a little more pragmatic than optimistic, so my link (should you read) may provide a mirthless laugh given how misplaced my hope was for a mandate based on thought, compassion, and true leadership.
I was wrong about many of the smaller predictions. I hope I am not about the big one.
Regardless of whether Biden comes through, as an American citizen, Christian, and human, I am deeply disturbed and saddened as to how as a country, we can still give this man the support he is getting. I do not understand.
I do understand, however, that there is one candidate who has consistently been strong enough to say “trust the process and and let every vote be counted,” and there is another candidate full of cowardice and fear saying “stop the counting, any ballots from here on out are fraudulent.”
I would like to invite people to the extent they are able, to imagine they know nothing about either candidate, other than Candidate A and Candidate B, and if you simply placed the exact words they have said ABOUT the election process in front of them...which candidate would you more trust to lead a country with democratic principles?
I value voices with thoughts full of compassionate intellect. 👊🏼

He does want the counting to continue. On Arizona and Nevada where he is losing.
Person 2
A disgrace, and so sad that many people, even many who have ended up suffering the most under his administration and racist behaviors, continue to support him.
Person 3
Fraud must be truly taking place~~~ when ballots show 97% one min of a state to Trump yet before the ballots are in they’re saying it’ll be made a blue state? Also, none of Bidens rallies had more than a handful of supporters! Trumps rallies were packed! Let’s see ~~🧐! Yet - somehow ballots mailed -in are lost and these states are being stated that Biden has won them?
Really.... Biden’s winning this Presidency by Fraud-Just as President Trump shared in his brief lastnight! It’s gravely rigged and democrats knew it’d be this way! They’ve rigged it all up to win illegally!
God still reigns amidst this sad corruption! God will bring about His truth even tho Lies are Rampant

Yes to God. No to the rest.

don't forget to factor Covid into Bidens rallies. I believe that's why his rallies looked small. Citizens trying their best to be respectful to eachother.
Person 3 responding to person 4
ok ~ yet, masks obviously could have been worn.
Person 5
some food for thought is that blue voters are more likely to use mail in ballots and therefore their results coming in later than those red voters who are more likely to vote in person. There is no evidence that Trump would accept loss, so of course as long as he isn’t winning he is going to call it fraud.
Person 3 responding to Person 5
It is as it was predicted and proven true. It’s going to take time to be investigated to be reaccessed.
Why would anyone back down on a false win?!
Mail in ballots were a way to sabotage the voting as no matter they take longer... Democrats with Pelosi pushed for it! It’s a way to change a lot of truth.
I’ve not voted as a green horn. Trumps doing what he needs to stand up for in truth!
Joseph in response to Person 3
No.
Person 4 in response to person 3
mail in ballots were a way to keep covid cases down. That's the only reason they were pushed. For some reason, it seems the left tends to think covid is a real issue, so, we voted the safest way we could. Via mail in, or dropping off our ballots. No sabotaging involved.
Person 3 in response to Person 4
cheaters will make all kinds of excuses... oh my . Now that’s funny!
Person 4 in response to Person 3
I feel like you drank the cool-aid. That's ok. The effects should wear off in a few months. Good luck.
Person 3 working to get the last word in
So sad
Truths and History allowed to continue to be destroyed. It’s shocking so many Christians think Biden/Harris are good candidates for America . I read the article Johnny and it’s just a sad opinion to those who see a different view. Kamala Harris Will become President and May then the truth be understood as it’s vividly revealed and seen. All the coverup they’ve led everyone to believe will control everyone! Biden and Harris plans are for a Socialist - Marxist Society and until Biden and she wins; no one believes it! It’s so sad but again~ the Bible truths are more living and real everyday we awake!
Definitely America has lost her Freedoms, ahead! God still reigns amidst the destruction of it ahead, even more deeply destroyed! God protect us and see us thru is our prayer~
Joseph, in response to Person 3
Yes to God. No to the rest.
Person 6
You have got to be kidding me. You're really deep into your delusional TrumpGod complex, aren't you.
Person 5
additionally I’d like to know exactly how Trump’s hateful rhetoric and ridicule of multiple people IS Christian? I’ll leave two examples: calling countries “shit hole” countries isn’t very Christian nor are statements about grabbing women by the.....
Trump went as low as to make memes making fun of Biden...also not Christian....
Person 7
Biden and Harris both are barely left. Biden also doesn’t have dementia.
Person 8
I will have a side of koolaid with whatever else you are having.
