I guess more and more Trump supporters would prefer a fraudulent authoritarian one-party system over a functioning democracy that includes the threat that an enemy is voted in office.

Which, in combination with Trump's deeds, is one of the reasons why I'd argue this election might just be about the future of democracy this time around.

This is what imho tends to happen as soon as hate is introduced as a political motivation, which Trump absolutely does. It soon trumps all other impulses, including decency, including facts and logic, including the one to preserve democracy. Putin, by the way, knows that. That's why he throws in all those ressources to hammer millions of people with propaganda to aid the ideology of right-wing populism. And he does this shit all over Europe too, all in an attempt to attack our democracies and societies. But hardly was any country so receptive to the underlying ideology than the US was. You're in danger.
