Biden has it backwards -- Democrats, not Republicans, keep democracy in the crosshairs

Yet again, Democrats have mastered psychological projection. Rather than brighten the darkness in their own souls, they accuse Republicans of practicing Democrats’ sins. Their latest allegation: The GOP jeopardizes democracy itself.

"The former president and his supporters have decided the only way for them to win is to suppress your vote and subvert our elections," President Joe Biden said Thursday at the U.S. Capitol. Marking one year since overzealous Trump backers rioted there, Biden added: "It’s wrong. It’s undemocratic. And frankly, it’s un-American."

Before introducing Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris alluded to President Donald J. Trump’s voters as "the forces who seek to dismantle our democracy."

"I’m worried that if Republicans win in the midterm elections, that voting in this country as we know it will be gone," Congressman Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., told MSNBC on Monday. "This is not only the most important election, but if we don’t get it right, it could be the last election."
