I think the writer of the letter “Vote to bring back democracy” (May 14, TribLive) has a distorted view of democracy . He thinks President Donald Trump is assaulting the legal and justice system, when in reality it is those systems that have been assaulting Trump for years with fake accusations and attempts to block his every move.
To me, continuing to label Jan. 6 as an insurrection is an absolute joke, and to think it is wrong to fire government employees is pure insanity.
Yes, democracy is in danger — but only if Democrats get back into power.
