I’d say Trump/MAGA because, in my view, defending democracy requires more than repeatedly calling political opponents a “threat.” It requires protecting both lawful access to the ballot and confidence that only eligible citizens vote, voter rolls are accurate, ballots remain auditable, and election systems are secure.

President Trump has advanced a specific election-integrity agenda: proof of citizenship for federal voter registration through the SAVE America Act, citizenship-verification tools for states, enforcement against unlawful voting, stronger voter-roll maintenance, paper-based voting safeguards, and greater scrutiny of vulnerabilities in electronic election systems.

Democrats say they are defending democracy through voter-registration drives, voting-rights litigation, and opposition to measures they believe could remove eligible voters. Those are real activities, but I disagree with their approach when they oppose citizenship-documentation requirements, resist federal examination of voter rolls, or portray audits and verification measures as voter suppression rather than working toward safeguards that protect both access and integrity.

Democracy is not protected by treating every Republican proposal as “fascism” or by claiming Trump and MAGA are inherently illegitimate. It is protected when eligible citizens can vote, unlawful votes are prevented, every lawful ballot is counted accurately, results can be independently verified, and political disagreements are resolved through elections and constitutional institutions.

That is why I believe Trump/MAGA are doing more to defend American democracy and election integrity than Democrats and the DSA.

We don't want political scenes like this in the World Cup, with the Argentinan players also causing clashes with the supporters not only in the ground, but also everywhere the match was shown on public screens.

A similar occurrence happened this year in the African Cup of Nations, with the players walking off the pitch because they disagreed with the referees decision.

The right decision was finally made with the African Cup Final, and the same decision should be made before Argentina play in this final.
