Lies, Politics and Democracy

quote [ The Republican Party enabled Donald Trump, as he convinced his base that the election was stolen.
.
McConnell chooses silence.
[Pence] says to the President, “I can't do it.”
Liz had given a really compelling narrative about why we have to certify the election.
.
A great deal of American democracy relies on simple good faith.
.
If anything was revealed to us, it was just how fragile the system we have.
.
It was the lie that
sparked an insurrection, existentialist threat to American democracy, created by decisions made over years, partisan warfare, moral compromise, warnings - ignored. ]

Does anyone watch PBS?
Some would believe every word in this documentary, yet the very documentary techniques used on this program, broadcast falsehoods and are believed by others.

The program is "Lies, politics and democracy".
"It was the lie that sparked an insurrection, existentialist threat to American democracy, created by decisions made over years, partisan warfare, moral compromise, warnings - ignored."

There are sufficient Americans to incite an insurrection.
Call it an existemtial threat or a clear and present danger.
The indifference, of citizens who know better, towards those lacking comprehension of citizenship, ends badly.
