Longtime Republican strategist and Lincoln Project co-founder Steve Schmidt warned that America is in a dangerous hour stating that president Donald Trump’s effort to overturn the election result “was a failed coup” that would result in him attempting another.
Slamming the attorney generals of the 18 red states who joined Texas in the lawsuit before the Supreme Court, Mr Schmidt said: “What happened in the month of November premeditatedly, deliberately, faith and belief in American democracy was poisoned by President Trump, culminating with 126 members of the House of Representatives and 18 Republicans attorney generals signing an amicus brief to a garbage lawsuit that is, in essence, a declaration of repudiation of American democracy.”
Republicans that support Trump's effort to overturn democracy in the United States obviously believe that keeping themselves on top of our nation's hierarchies is much more important than the democracy towards which the country professes to aspire.
