None of those countries, Venezuela, Cuba, the Soviet Union, et al have a Constitution or Bill of Rights like ours. It’s why we’ve lasted as long as we have. I find it insane that anyone thinks a president, any president, is going to march into office and in 6 months dismantle a government that’s been standing for over 250 years.

“Dismantle”? No. “Hasten us on a slide toward the warm bath of the European-style ‘social state’”? Yes.
