"The 2023-2024 campaign season is not just the strangest on record, it’s also arguably the most anti-democratic.
"Ostensibly, the Democratic Party has claimed over the last decade that former President Donald Trump posed a continued and existential threat to the republic.
"That allegation subsequently justified a variety of anti-democratic means to neuter his first two presidential candidacies, his presidency, and now his third and final run for the White House.
"A near decade ago, we witnessed the 2015-2016 Hillary Clinton / Democratic National Committee / FBI-assisted effort to plant the false accusation of Trump-Russian collusion to warp the 2016 election.
"That gambit centered around the fraudulent Steele dossier and nearly fatally crippled the Trump 2016 campaign. That hoax would later sidetrack 22 months of his presidency before being proven a fantasy.
"On the eve of the 2020 election, the left next birthed the Russian laptop disinformation campaign. That hoax also warped a presidential debate with false charges that Hunter Biden’s own incriminating laptop was once again the work of Russians seeking to conspire with Trump.
"Those unusual efforts continued during the Biden administration.
"For the first time in election history, the allies of one campaign sought to persuade some 16 states to try to remove a major party’s likely nominee from their primary and general election ballots.
"The plan was to smother a Trump third presidential bid in its infancy, and thus once again not allow the people to accept or reject his candidacy.
"Nearly simultaneously, four federal, state, and local prosecutors filed dozens of felony charges against Trump.'
"They all shared some strange similarities.
