The Clintons Predict the End of Democracy in America If Republicans Win by Michael L. Brown for Ask Dr Brown
GNN Note – I would be extremely grateful to see the end of democracy and a return to our once proud Republic. Democracy is this…two wolves and a sheep voting on what’s for dinner. / END
In separate interviews conducted in separate settings, former President and First Lady Bill and Hillary Clinton both issued dire warnings. If America keeps voting Republican and moving to the right, it will spell the end of Democracy in our nation.
According to Bill Clinton, there is a “fair chance” the United States could “completely lose our constitutional democracy.” In Hillary’s words, we are on the “precipice of losing our democracy.”

When have we heard these kinds of warnings before?
During the days when Bill Clinton was running for president, I saw an ad on TV one night. A house was on fire, burning down to the ground, but there were no firemen in sight. And, clearly implied in the ad, within this house were senior citizens!
This, we were told, is what will happen if the Republicans win the election. Cuts in federal funding will lead to the death of the elderly!
To be sure, this was not identical to warning about the end of Democracy in our nation. But the appeal to fear – stark, terrifying fear – was certainly the same.
It was also in the 1990s that Hillary Clinton first spoke about the “vast right-wing conspiracy” that, in her words, “has been conspiring against my husband since the day he announced for president.” (This quote is from 2016, during her own presidential campaign.)
She continued in 2016, “It’s gotten even better funded. You know, they brought in some new multi-millionaires to pump the money in and – well, these guys play for keeps. They want to control our country. Senator Sanders and I agree on that completely. They want to rig the economy so they continue to get richer and richer. They could care less about income inequality.”
Yes, the takeover by the rich right is a real threat to our nation. What happens to our freedoms when the wealthy right-wingers rule?
Now, in her recent interview with the Financial Times, she stated, “If you go down the rabbit hole of far right intellectuals, you see that birth control, gay marriage — all of it is at risk.”
Indeed, according to other Democratic leaders, Donald Trump himself – even without the “far right intellectuals” and “multi-millionaires” – is a threat to Democracy.
As reported by The Guardian in February 2021, “House impeachment managers ended their case against Donald Trump with a warning that he would remain a threat to US democracy if he was not convicted and banned from holding public office again.”
Is there no end to this fearmongering?
Yet, to be totally candid, the sword cuts both ways.
How many of us who vote conservatively were warned that a Biden presidency would spell the end of Democracy, especially with the alleged stealing of our votes?
