Washington Post columnist roasted for declaring GOP victories in upcoming midterms 'is how democracies die'
Fox News
Washington Post's Max Boot was mocked by critics for saying the upcoming midterm elections "is how democracies die," particularly if Republicans sweep races nationwide.
"Those issues are more closely linked than most people realize, because most of the same MAGA candidates who support Donald Trump’s strongman rule at home are either indifferent or hostile to the fate of democracy abroad. J.D. Vance, the GOP nominee for U.S. Senate in Ohio, exemplifies the trend: He has said the 2020 election was 'stolen' and ‘I don’t really care what happens to Ukraine one way or another,’" Boot told readers.

He continued, "That makes it all the more disturbing that Vance and other MAGA candidates are in the lead two weeks before Election Day. Vladimir Putin must have a smug smile on his face as he reads reports of recent political developments in the 'Main Enemy,' as KGB agents of his generation referred to the United States."
