A healthy democracy would elect a leader who can actually make good on those promises
Merkel hasn't tried to suspend parliament and assume ultimate authority for herself. Orban has, and Bolsonaro clearly desires to. If you don't see any appreciable difference between these leaders and what they represent, then there is little point in continuing this discussion.And Merkel has been Chancellor of Krautland for 15 years now.
What's your point?

The left only understands the constitution in so much as they want to destroy it.
Anons on /pol/ have some interesting observations about the election. I have to say I agree with them.

If Biden wins, it will just be barely. This election won't be the landslide that the Democrats (or Republicans) are hoping for. If Biden is actually leading in battleground states, it's a smaller margin than the mainstream media wants to admit. Not to mention that Biden's lead in the polls are declining.Anons on /pol/ have some interesting observations about the election. I have to say I agree with them.

That makes no fucking sense. Wouldn't you want someone to correct Trump over and over again to expose him for lying? What harm is there in having someone who can respond to Trump's claims and try to correct them? If anything, if the Dems really want to call him out, this would be the perfect opportunity to do so. I mean granted, we know the real reason why they don't want Biden to debate him, that being he wouldn't even have the mental capacity to actually answer the damn questions, but even so this is the lamest excuse I've ever heard.
All those people in the comments agreeing and going "but if there was a debate Biden would total demolish the little baby orange man!" I don't even get what the CNN "political analyst" thinks is bad about giving Biden a chance to tear into Trump and call out all his lies. Trump did the same with Hillary and his leaning into the mic asmr "Wrong" while she talked. Same people were smugly saying that Trump was going to cancel the debate because he was scared of Biden. They know that Biden would be torn apart in an actual debate.
Fuck you. Giant Meteor for life.Seconded. It should be updated to Trump VS Biden.
We all knew this was coming, but it's still pretty early for Team Sleepy to start chickening out already... We're still nearly 3 months out from the first scheduled debate. Also MUH TAX RETURNS

Media Urges Biden To Limit Debates, Threaten To Boycott Them Entirely

Media Urges Biden To Limit Debates, Threaten To Boycott Them Entirely
July 8, 2020 By Elle Reynolds
As the Trump campaign has requested the addition of another presidential debate, members of the media are urging former Vice President Joe Biden and his campaign to limit them.
Washington Post columnist Karen Tumulty suggests “rethinking” the debates, urging organizers to limit their audiences “or even do away with them entirely.” Criticizing President Trump and the Republican party for their decision to attempt an in-person convention this summer, she also mocked Trump’s request to add a fourth debate, calling it “not a serious proposal.”
Thomas Friedman of the New York Times has also called for Biden to skip the debates unless Trump releases his tax returns and agrees to a fact-checking team at the debates. “I worry about Joe Biden debating Donald Trump,” Friedman says, quickly clarifying that he fears Trump would have “unfair advantages” if he doesn’t meet these demands. Friedman acknowledges that the debates will be Biden’s “reintroduction to most Americans, who have neither seen nor heard from him for months if not years.” And apparently, Friedman finds that thought concerning.
Still, the Biden campaign has insisted they are committed to participating in all three debates, and Biden has said he “can hardly wait.” But conservatives on Twitter have speculated that the Biden campaign may consider Friedman’s suggestions or use his points as an excuse to keep Biden from the debate floor’s spotlight.
Byron York of the Washington Examiner called Friedman’s article “an early public statement of fear Biden will not do well in debate,” and a “suggestion of excuse for Biden to cancel while still blaming Trump.”
The presidential debate scheduled for October 15 was canceled by the University of Michigan, the original host for the event, over concerns that the debate would draw a crowd during the coronavirus pandemic. The debate has since been moved to Miami, Florida. After the University of Michigan’s cancellation, the University of Notre Dame — where a debate is currently scheduled for September 29 — declined to tell the South Bend Tribune whether that debate would still continue as planned.
A third debate is planned for October 22 in Nashville, Tennessee, with a vice presidential debate scheduled for October 7 in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Back in April, Biden shut down the idea of continuing the Democratic debates with his opponent Bernie Sanders, blaming the coronavirus pandemic. “I think we’ve had enough debates,” Biden said after the Sanders campaign signaled their willingness to participate in an April debate.
Trying to be more diplomatic towards despots (which in this case frankly just means Putin, Kim Jong-Un, and Xi Jinping [pre-Wuhan coronavirus]), when being more "forceful" against them has historically produced little results, while demanding that increasingly impotent and irrelevant supposed "allies" (who often use the resources of said despots behind our backs, while they still leach off our own resources) actually pull their weight isn't "ingratiating" or "pushing away" anyone who isn't some fat pseudo-intellectual mongoloid who wishes he could subsist entirely off of government loans.Ingratiating yourself towards despots while pushing away democratic allies is a surefire way to achieve the precise opposite of what you claim, and the evidence clearly shows that it is achieving the opposite.
If you recall, the 2018 Georgia gubernatorial race was rife with voter suppression, voter disinformation, and finally the downright theft of an election by Brian Kemp, the secretary of state and Republican candidate. Kemp used his authority as secretary of state to control the allocation of resources, ballots, and election day procedures in one of the most egregious abuses of electoral power this side of Bush v. Gore.
Internet ‘traditionalists’ are largely Catholics (or pretending to be), and while Catholics have certainly been part of the Religious Right, such as on abortion, the movement was largely Evangelical Protestants. Tradcaths are also more likely to be vaguely economically left wing.Exactly.
I get the feeling a lot of the people defending the old Religious Right and advocating for a return to (((traditionalism))) are edgy Zoomers who were too young to remember the Religious Right.
Or they're Late Millennials and Early Zoomers who grew up in the Blue States (or are Eurofags) and never really saw the fundies firsthand, so it seems like it was an entirely overhyped thing since towards the last stretch of the RR's dominance in the Bush years, they pretty much were a paper tiger barely hanging on.
In a weird way, the Woke Left is like a grotesque inverted parody of McCarthyism. There were actual communists infiltrating upper echelons of American society (Alger Hiss, Julius Rosenberg, the academics of the 60's) even if McCarthy was a paranoid loon, while Woke Leftism is looking for invisible fascists/capitalists/white supremacists/incels/"chuds" that never existed (or are created by the Woke Left's own insanity) and are exalting far-left ideology.
