Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said Thursday on CNN’s “The Lead” that Fox News was the “number one cause” of “erosion in our democracy” while discussing the Dominion Voting Systems lawsuit against FNC for defamation.
Schumer said, “The threat to our democracy may be greater than it ever has been before because when people doubt that the elections are for real, democracy is on edge. After all, the wellspring, the heart of our democracy, is that we trust the elections. You know, I worry that if this erodes, our democracy will erode, and my children and grandchildren will not grow up in the grand democracy that gave me,

Trust is earned, not demanded.
The more you insist, ChuckU, the less I trust.

The people don't have much say in your democracy, Schumer. Trump was talking about you when he read the snake story.

Chuck Schumer's lies are only second to Joe Biden's. He is the poster child for the de-evolution of a segment of society, representing the woke and absurdly dishonest segment of society against all that is descent and upstanding.

The number on threat to democracy is Schumer, those of his ilk, woke idiots, the Democratic party and the willful fools who vote for them.

Our democracy is under threat when voting machines are preprogrammed to favor Democrat candidates and when judges tell election deniers with legitimate proof of fraud to 'get out of my courtroom.'

Schmuckie demands we trust the results of crooked elections because if you don't go along with the dictators you are a bad communist. If Fox is the cause of our mistrust of the Deep State, it's because they are the only news source that has an audience percentage above a children's shoe size.

I am all in favor of not only "eroding" democracy in our representative republic, but eliminating it entirely. When that word is used by democrats like Schumer, it means totalitarian rule. Remember what John Adams wrote:
“I do not say that democracy has been more pernicious on the whole, and in the long run, than monarchy or aristocracy. Democracy has never been and never can be so durable as aristocracy or monarchy; but while it lasts, it is more bloody than either. … Remember, democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet that did not commit suicide. It is in vain to say that democracy is less vain, less proud, less selfish, less ambitious, or less avaricious than aristocracy or monarchy. It is not true, in fact, and nowhere appears in history. Those passions are the same in all men, under all forms of simple government, and when unchecked, produce the same effects of fraud, violence, and cruelty. When clear prospects are opened before vanity, pride, avarice, or ambition, for their easy gratification, it is hard for the most considerate philosophers and the most conscientious moralists to resist the temptation. Individuals have conquered themselves. Nations and large bodies of men, never.”

I wish I could figure what happens to liberal brains or maybe what happened to make them the way they are. Could it be them listening to MSNBC or CNN all day and hearing the blather and untruths spewed from those channels? Then they pass it on to their family and friends? I don't watch those channels but I have seen enough video clips from them to know what they do. They are a menace to our population and it's too bad DirecTV doesn't pull a Newsmax on them.

Not everyone adheres to your New York Socialist point of view Chuck.
And our representative republic (we don't have a democracy Chuck, we have a MOB-ocracy) is being destroyed by ne'er-do-wells like you who couldn't cut in the private sector so they had to go into politics to make their money that way

Schumer is banging his head against the First Amendment of the US Constitution when he takes on the content of Fox News political reporting and programming.

Chuck Schumer (D-NY), a piece of human trash, talks about Fox News while he and his communist democrats are destroying our country. Only an ignorant democrat refuses to see what is happening right before their eyes. Think about the "erosion in our democracy". Think about millions of illiterates crossing our open borders being supported by your taxpayer money, think about your children being indoctrinated into the democrat's perverted trans agenda, think about our economy being destroyed by their sick climate agenda, think about massive increases in violent crime where criminals are being released from prison to prey on the innocent, think about the lawless cities that democrats control. And this freakin communist moron, Chuck Schumer, has the gall to talk about Fox News. Pathetic.
