Analysis

"The US political system was created to restrain democracy, not protect it.

"The founders essentially placed a ticking time bomb at the heart of our political system—and this could be the year it explodes."

They worked within a system that concentrated power in the hands of an elite, propertied, white male minority.

200+ years have "increasingly vested the majority of political power in the hands of a reactionary conservative white minority."

Imo, the "four threats" are interconnected aspects of the intentional foundational anti-democratic system.
