We were willing to overlook that as long as our elections worked and we could have a peaceful transfer of power.

One party wants to change that. If they’re effective, then we can say we’re like Russia.

We used to like Russia when we had our CIA man Yeltsin in power. He gave away much of the country to US financed oligarchs of all nations. Putin reigned in oligarchy's control over the country. That's why Russia is enemy again.

I mean close. In USA you have one more candidate to choose from, and sometimes one or both the candidates are different than last time. And there's still a two term limit for presidents.

Putin would've been kinda ok if he had stopped at 8 years. The worst problems started after he started extending his reign.
