President Joe Biden named Donald Trump as the “primary threat” to “freedom and democracy” in the United States.

    I think it is more the oligarchy that rules everything and controls all the media. Trump is a POS, but he is a symptom of a larger problem.

      You mean Biden’s donors? Yeah, he isn’t going to call them out. Far easier to fear monger about evil orange man bad!

        It’s not fear mongering if there is a warranted reason to fear it

          I agree, trump is awful in every sense of the word and has no business in politics.

          My point is instead of propping him up as a boogeyman to drive easy fundraising, how about we lock him up for selling state secrets and throw away the key? Or take your pick from one of his other 91 felony charges. We need justice, even for a former president.

            I have no objection to your sentiment but merely your choice of words. Agreed.
