He predicted, “good men, men who love tranquility, who desire to abide by the laws, and enjoy their benefits, who would gladly spill their blood in the defense of their country; seeing their property destroyed; their families insulted, and their lives endangered; their persons injured; and seeing nothing in prospect that forebodes a change for the better; become tired of, and disgusted with, a Government that offers them no protection; and are not much averse to a change in which they imagine they have nothing to lose.”

Combined, he warned, these seemingly opposing feelings come to one terrible conclusion: “the strongest bulwark of any Government, and particularly of those constituted like ours, may effectually be broken down and destroyed — I mean the attachment of the People.”

Yes, the Republican Party is now the gravest threat to our nation.
 
We watched a police officer being beating by a pole with an American Flag on it, and a traitor walking through the halls of Congress with a Confederate Battle flag, that is the trump camp, Own It.

Dictatorial power, forcible suppression of opposition, political violence, bigotry of a demonized 'other', and strong regimentation of society, working in uneasy but effective collaboration with traditional elites, abandons democratic liberties and pursues with redemptive violence and without ethical or legal restraints goals of internal cleansing and external expansion .... CHECK!

It's a match.
