Who Has Been Busy Destroying Democracy? - Victor Davis Hanson

"Destroying democracy" -- the latest theme of the left -- can be defined in many different ways. - Victor Davis Hanson 
  • So, who in 2020, and now once again, has boasted about packing the 156-year-old, nine-justice Supreme Court?
  • Who talks frequently about destroying the 187-year-old Senate filibuster--though only when they hold a Senate majority? 
  • Who wants to bring in an insolvent left-wing Puerto Rico and redefine the 235-year-old District of Columbia -- by altering the Constitution -- as two new states solely to obtain four additional liberal senators?
  • Who is trying to destroy the constitutionally mandated 235-year Electoral College by circumventing it with the surrogate "The National Popular Vote Interstate Compact?"
  • Does destroying democracy also entail weaponizing federal bureaucracies, turning them into rogue partisan arms of a president?...
