John Dean: If Trump Not Convicted, ‘We Don’t Have the Democracy We Believe We Have’
Breitbart ^ | 08/03/2023 | Pam Key

Posted on 08/03/2023 11:54:29 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

John Dean, former White House counsel to Richard Nixon, said Thursday on “CNN News Central” if former President Donald Trump is not convicted in the January 6 case, then “we don’t have the democracy we believe we have.”

Anchor Erin Burnett asked, “John, as you sit here on this day appeared we watch a former president of the United States heading to Washington to be arraigned, charged formally in a federal courthouse for undermining the U.S. Constitution, how do you even put this in context?”

Dean said, “It does not fit in the context because it is bigger and more significant than any litigation, any criminal proceeding we’ve ever had in this country. Democracy itself is really at issue at this trial.”

You don’t have a democracy you intellectual worm. It’s a republic and and people like you are the reason the country is in trouble.

Sure, locking up your political opponents is a good look for a “democracy” .

These a$$holes have invoked the word “DEMOCRACY” more in the past six years then they have in their entire combined lifetimes.

Out of what retirement community did they drag this man to appear on the Communist News Network? John Dean had his scandal too; his wife was a former call girl and he was afraid that her pass would be exposed. Only after blackmail was threatened did Dean turn against the Nixon Administration.

Indeed, the founding fathers never wanted America to become a democracy.

America is a Constitutional Republic.

...which means it operates under a system of government where the powers of the government are limited by a written or unwritten constitution. The Constitution serves as the supreme law of the land and outlines the structure of the government and the rights and liberties of its citizens. It also establishes a system of checks and balances to prevent any one branch of government from becoming too powerful.

.....

However... the deep-state has mismanaged what I just explained above.

One hope I have is that the discovery will expose the fraud in the 2020 elections. Not that it’s going to matter much, because there is no way that Trump can get a fair trial in DC.

There’s a paragon of virtue to draw to. Probably has no problem with Biden.
