Lots are former maga believe it or not. Now maga tends to win through gerrymandering not popularity and tend to be more geographically isolated, so they don’t have the numbers dems do and are more stubborn, but it’s happening.

Hitler completely dismantled democracy in 53 days. Trump has been in office for 88 days.

The Weimarer Republic was a very young democracy, it existed only for 15 years and before that Germany was a monarchy. Trump is dismantling the oldest democracy at the moment

I don't think the US is the oldest democracy as San Marino has been around for a long ass time.

When exactly you consider San Marino an Independent entity could be debated but def older than the US.
