Obama shades Biden by saying that ‘demonizing’ opponents leades to violence
Even as President Joe Biden delivered a speech Wednesday criticizing “MAGA Republicans” and linking them to last week’s assault on Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband, former President Barack Obama advised Democrats from demonizing their political rivals.According to a report by Breitbart News, Obama warned that using “over-the-top” speech to demonize opponents could lead to physical violence at a rally in Phoenix, Arizona
“One thing is clear, and that is this increasing habit of demonizing political opponents, of just yelling and thinking not just that I disagree with someone, but that they’re evil and wrong,” Obama said.
“That creates a dangerous climate. And when we have politicians and elected officials in leadership positions who continue to promote over-the-top rhetoric or make light of it … more people are going to get hurt,” the former president went on.

the ONLY people constantly demonizing opponents are Demonrats.
The desperation in the appeals of the Democratic Party over this election is palpable.
And why do they keep referring to our Democracy? The US is a Constitutional Republic, not a Democracy. It would have been gone a long time ago, if it were a Democracy.
There is no substitute for knowledge, and the American People just don't have any. That is why we are in so much difficulty now.
The Founding Fathers knew all of this, and they went ahead with their grand plan in spite of it.
You are over intellectualizing the word "democracy" is this essence and how it was used. We have democratic principles in this Republic of ours.
