However, in places where liberals are considered wild-eyed anarchists, at the very least, any Democratic Candidate must bring up Trump's comments and appearances of cozying up to dictators should be brought up as a serious concern and threat to the democracy that has enabled constituents and "forefathers" to prosper and thrive in freedom because of the Constitution of the United State; that "their freedoms" should never be contingent to keeping in their place as "good little lap-dogs" in a political football game.
Or words to that effect.

The GOP has turned making corporate profits off complacency and fear a high art - and that there is no "liberal media", there is only corporate media with a local mask in some places. And that needs to be pointed out time and time and time again.
