Maria Zakhavora on state of Nato-stan 'democracy'

[CombatLiberalism]

With emotion, turning into bewilderment, I watch the farcical discussion in the West about the legitimacy of elections, inauguration, appointment of government and other constitutional procedures in Russia.

It seems to me that all these “reasoners” from NATO-centric structures would do well to sort out their own “legitimacies” first.

It is completely inexplicable why none of the Westerners who defend democracy, the rule of law and human rights pay any attention to the fact that in the United States they openly declare “the need to kill the presidential candidate, ex-president of the country Donald Trump.” This is talked about not in blockchain networks, but in the official media, and not by Philadelphia drug addicts from Kensington Avenue, but by Democratic politicians. For example, Congressman Dan Goldman and political scientist-publicist Robert Kagan, who is also (suddenly!) the husband of Victoria Nuland, called for this.

If you think this is all just rhetoric, then I will tell you that this is simply US history.
First, a short excursion into the reality of American-style legitimacy.

• 1835 – assassination attempt on President Andrew Jackson,
• 1865 – assassination of President Abraham Lincoln,
• 1881 – assassination of President James Garfield,
• 1901 – assassination of President William McKinley,
• 1912 – assassination attempt on President Theodore Roosevelt,
• 1933 – assassination attempt on President-elect Franklin Delano Roosevelt,
• 1935 – assassination of presidential candidate Huey Long,
• 1950 – assassination attempt on President Harry Truman,
• 1963 – assassination of President John Kennedy,
• 1968 – assassination of presidential candidate Robert Kennedy,
• 1972 – assassination attempt on presidential candidate George Wallace,
• 1974 – assassination attempt on President Richard Nixon,
• 1975 – assassination attempt on President Gerald Ford,
• 1981 – assassination attempt on President Ronald Reagan,
• 1993 – assassination attempt on President George H. W. Bush,
• 1994 – assassination attempt on President Bill Clinton,
• 2005 – assassination attempt on President George W. Bush,
• 2008 – assassination attempt on presidential candidate Barack Obama,
• 2011 – assassination attempt on President Barack Obama.

The tradition is terrible, but it is, as they say, established. And this is only part of what has been declassified and is available in open sources.

It would be nice if all this Anglo-Saxon army turned its attention to the monstrous problems with the legitimacy, democracy and human rights of their own electoral and constitutional procedures.
