  1. "The Democratic party is the sole political party in America that has remained faithful to America. Its candidates are not perfect, they are, however, loyal. Loyal to America, loyal to the Constitution, and loyal to the America people." --Steve Schmidt.

  2. "Many strongmen, past and present, have used populist rhetoric that defines their nations as bound by faith, race, and ethnicity rather than by legal rights. For authoritarians, only some people are "the people," regardless of their birthplace or citizenship status, and only the leader, above and beyond any institution, embodies that group. This is why, in strongman states, a ttacking the leader is seen as a ttacking the state itself, and why critics are labeled enemies of the people orTer rorists." -- Ruth Ben-Ghiat, Strongmen: Mu55olini to the Present.
