If Trump wins in November, the greatest threat to democracy will most certainly come from the overreaction and overreach of the Dems and the left. They’ll likely burn it all down in an ongoing tantrum over the never ending theme of Orange Man bad.
"Where, then, is their credibility when those same Democrats denounce Donald Trump as a fascist?"
Actually everything that the Left had ascribed to Trump is a feature of the current Left and the Biden administration: censorship, anti-Semitism, using government to harass opponents, violence in the streets, corruption.
It's enough to walk in the streets of many major American cities to see the disaster Biden has brought on this country, let alone on its allies and image abroad.
I can compare the state of the USA now with what it was four years ago, Covid, BLM and all, and no question a return of President Trump is a return to far better times.
There’s a lot of truth in what you say, though I’m not convinced that Trump would restore the good times if he came back into power. Biden’s so bad, however, that it may be so.
The left has so demonized Trump that they really believe that internment camps will be built (and that the military will aid Trump - Miley assuring the Chinese that he would not obey Trump is already forgotten).
TDS is strong among otherwise intelligent people.
But these young nihilists are plain evil.
As bad though are those in leadership positions who do nothing - they don't speak up, they don't curb the demonstrations, and they exhibit moral ambiguity.
Anecdotally, I am seeing a rising frustration among ordinary Americans.
Many people who can't stand Trump will vote for him just to get rid of the Biden administration.
Brilliant, once again. Indisputable.
Meantime, in Gaza, we’ve got the “giant” pier to nowhere compliments of Biden’s re-election campaign ~ https://youtu.be/2hL_ATXJ6JU?si=oMdSf2Xq5WnQZzNz

Indeed. It might be fun to watch, though…
Ha!

"good times" is a hard target to nail down but "better times" is easy:
1. better economic results for the mass of the population:

2. calmer times abroad with less risk of war
3. fewer anti-Semitic incidents and fewer public leaders supporting them
4. less govt-inspired censorship by Big Tech

You might be right on that last point. Biden’s that bad…
