We see a large group of the population aligning with an authoritarian political group using a false slogan of Making America Great Again. Our Constitution is challenged, voter fraud propaganda is hard at work, free and fare election laws are being manipulated, and women's reproductive rights taken away by this ultra-conservative, male-led political group. How close are we to the destruction of our democracy?? Are we on the horizon of such a crisis? Other countries have experienced it, why do we think it couldn't happen in America? (less)
