But to reverse what's been done, Democrats will have to act in equally authoritarian ways inside the halls of government w respect to DOJ, State and especially DHS. Once competitive authoritarianism begins it will be very difficult to stop.

Sadly the people who consider themselves the ultimate constitution-loving patriots are the ones serving our country up on a platter to the oligarchs and authoritarians. Many are well meaning people who just got conned. Time to wake up.

Village idiots! How do they not know defending democracy is the only way they can stand to enjoy freedom of speech and everything that they do. Go ahead and LOVE all you want but if our democracy falls, your actions has dragged down the rest of us into hellish dictatorship.
