It is looking like democracy.
Please read The Guardian's ‘It’s chilling what is happening’: a rightwing backlash to Biden takes root in Republican states. This excerpt comes from that article which details all the ways the Republicans are striking out at American democracy.
For Jacob Hacker, a political scientist at Yale, the attack on elections and the very machinery of democracy sets the current Republican fury apart. “This is different. Republicans at state level have moved from pursuing conservative economic policies to pushing measures designed to cripple the opposition and undermine democracy.”
Hacker added: “The Republican party used to be anti-Democratic, now it’s anti-democratic.”
