John Dean: Republican Party Has Decided it’s ‘OK to Be Openly Authoritarian’
Breitbart ^ | 06/17/2022 | Pam Key

Former Nixon White House counsel John Dean said Friday on CNN’s “Situation Room” that the Republican Party has “decided it was OK to be openly authoritarian” by supporting former President Donald Trump.

Anchor Wolf Blitzer said, “Watching these current hearings nearly 50 years after your own testimony helped bring down President Nixon, do you fear what is going on now, what has happened, is actually worse than Watergate?”

Watergate was actually just a scheme by John Dean to cover up his wife's past. (per G. Gordon Liddy)

Time magazine did an depth story which made a convincing case that the break-in was on the wrong side of the building for Larry O'Brien's office to have been the target.

Really? A cogent analysis shows a lot more love of rules, control and regulation on the left.

Yeah, they want their political future more than America’s future.

They’re too stupid to realize that with America first they’ll have a good future but with their own political future first, they’ll end up with NOTHING.

Let me attempt to translate from John Dean’s addled use of language. What he’s saying is this: “Anyone who doesn’t bend over and grab their ankles for the Democrat agenda is guilty of being “openly authoritarian.”

Ah, who is it who is trying to govern by executive order again? Did Pedo Joe turn Republican while we weren’t looking?

Look at which party has the longer list of "you musts" and "you can'ts". By far the more authoritarian party is the Democrat Party. Other than abortion, the Republicans really are not pushing "you can'ts", and they had precedent on that which stated "Thou shalt not kill".

Two idiots in the same room. What do you expect?

You MUSt wear a mask indoors.
You must wear a mask outdoors
You must stay home
You must get the clot shoot
You must get boosters
You mustteach children sex information that a few years ago would get adults jailed.
You must not have guns
If you do have guns, you must not have any magazines more than 10 capacity
You must bake for events you consider a sacrilege.
You must address others by their preferred pronouns
Above all, you must not question the 2020 election.

But none of these are authoritative. They are for your own good

The list is hundreds in length. Add your own.

I sure am glad there’s no authoritarianism in the Democrat Party. This country would be in a right bloody mess if there was.

I must have missed the part of Wolf Blitzer’s introduction of John Dean where he mentions the felony conviction.
