Democracy Gone Astray

Democracy, being a human construct, needs to be thought of as directionality rather than an object. As such, to understand it requires not so much a description of existing structures and/or other related phenomena but a declaration of intentionality.
This blog aims at creating labeled lists of published infringements of such intentionality, of points in time where democracy strays from its intended directionality. In addition to outright infringements, this blog also collects important contemporary information and/or discussions that impact our socio-political landscape.

All the posts here were published in the electronic media – main-stream as well as fringe, and maintain links to the original texts.

[NOTE: Due to changes I haven't caught on time in the blogging software, all of the 'Original Article' links were nullified between September 11, 2012 and December 11, 2012. My apologies.]

GOP Strategist Trashes Trump Co-defendants With ‘Whorehouse’ Swipe

Republican strategist Alice Stewart on Tuesday pulled no punches when describing the ruthless political ambitions of Donald Trump’s 18 co-defendants in the Georgia election interference case.

But Stewart told CNN’s Jake Tapper that those indicted alongside the former president — including former Trump White House chief of staff Mark Meadows and former Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani — are just as likely to flip on Trump, given they could now face serious prison time if they are found guilty and are convicted.

“I know a lot of these people in Fulton County that are these co-conspirators or unnamed co-conspirators, from Atlanta. I know these people,” Stewart said in a video shared online by Mediaite.

“They worked so hard and did so much to curry favor with Donald Trump and the Republican Party,” she continued. “These are the kind of people that would throw their momma in a whorehouse to get politically advanced.”

However, Stewart made a dire prediction for Trump.

“Now they’re looking at, ‘This is real.’ They’re not going to the big house or the poor house for Donald Trump,” she said, suggesting they might cooperate with prosecutors. “As they speak up, that might impact Donald Trump.”
