Letter to the editor: Democracy or hypocrisy?

If you are a viewer of MSNBC, CNN or one of the other major networks, you have been told ad nauseam that our “democracy” is at stake.

On June 27, the first presidential debate was held between Joe Biden and Donald Trump. It was evident that night that what was at stake was our Republic.

Biden’s family, his physician, Democratic leadership under Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer, as well as the mainstream media, led us to believe that Biden was solidly sound to lead our nation.

If Biden were winning by 10 points in the polls, would these same people feel his cognitive decline to be an issue? If it were an issue, would it be large enough of one to consider invoking the 25th Amendment? If Biden feels he needs to step aside for the good of the nation, then why not resign immediately?

Joseph A. Wulfsohn, media reporter for Fox News Digital, reported in an article published July 11 that “Progressives are enraged as Democrats reportedly privately admit Trump is not an ‘existential threat to democracy.’ ”

It seems transparent that “democracy” is being replaced by hypocrisy. Are millions of Biden voters about to have their votes disenfranchised?

It is all about winning an election, regardless of the cost.

Full stop.
