The Barbarian
Roger Cohen:
The barbarian savior loves to see a reporter body-slammed, to parade his ignorance, to strut his lies, to broadcast his bigotry, to empower rich Middle Eastern murderers, to humiliate a woman traumatized by sexual assault, to incite his followers to violence, to sap civilization, to toy with nuclear Armageddon as a distraction from his scam.
The barbarian game is clear: to blind Americans to the fact that the United States is a self-governing enterprise. To say government is evil, government is terrible, bad government is what Democrats do — so just leave it to us! In short, the objective is to outlast us, and to eviscerate the institutions that make us, us. But no! We Americans are self-governing, and in the face of malevolent and feckless and corrupt people, there are better options.
That is what the vote on Nov. 6 is about.

Damn straight!! But, if folks (good honest real Americans) don't wake up and get off their as*es and head for the polls the GOP and their gerrymandered Congress will win. Perhaps permanently.
VOTE BLUE November 6th. It is a life and death vote to preserve our democratic republic.
... life OR death vote, not life and death vote.
