It’s not elections vs no elections. I mean. They have elections in Venezuela and Sudan
It’s about how flawed those elections are.
I would also add that the US is VERY far down the flawed election route. You have multiple areas where one party rewrites rules to ensure it wins, and you’ve had multiple elections where the obvious cheating has decided the national outcome.
So no, Trump is not going to mean no elections. He’s going to take you folks from very flawed elections to very very flawed.
Or rather than say these ideas lead to the rise of nazis in Germany in the 30s, say they lead to the fall of Germany in the 40s. They didn’t work then and the only thing they’ll work for now is embarrassing us in front of the world when they fail again.
I guess on some technical definition of the word cheat you could argue that 2000 wasn’t actually cheated but that feels like a distinction without a difference
