In a video uploaded to YouTube, two Nevadans expressed their intention\u200c to\u200c vote for former President Donald Trump\u200d in the\u2063 2024 election, going against the media&#8217;s portrayal\u2063 of Trump as a threat to democracy. The article highlights\u200c that these voters believe the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/this-is-real-fascism-anger-erupts-after-biden-doj-targets-more-pro-life-protesters-who-now-face-decade-behind-bars\/\" title=\"Anger flares as Biden DOJ targets additional pro-life protesters, potentially sentencing them to ten years in prison\">real \u200dthreats<\/a>\u200b to democracy come from COVID \u200cauthoritarians,\u200b promoters of \u2062mail-in ballots, and the \u2062Democratic Party. The piece also mentions a Nevada entrepreneur who plans to vote against \u200dPresident Joe Biden but primarily in support of Trump,\u200b citing her \u200dadmiration for his strength in the face of\u200b relentless attacks. the article suggests that the American people are beginning to \u2063see through the \u200destablishment&#8217;s narratives and are starting\u200d to value truth\u2064 and individual resilience.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><br \/>\n<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-\/\/W3C\/\/DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional\/\/EN\" \"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/TR\/REC-html40\/loose.dtd\"> <?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><html><body><\/p>\n<header> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/commentary\/\">  Commentary <\/a>   <span> <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/author\/michael-schwarz\/\">  <\/a> <\/p>\n<p> <span>   By <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/author\/michael-schwarz\/%20\"><span>Michael Schwarz<\/span><\/a> <\/span> <span>   July 5, 2024 at 10:52am <\/span> <\/span>  <\/header>\n<section>\n<p>Many Americans seem to have realized that the establishment\u2019s media minions nearly always tell the opposite of the truth.<\/p>\n<p>In a video uploaded to YouTube on Thursday, CBS News executive director of elections and surveys Anthony Salvanto spoke with two Nevadans who plan to vote for former President Donald Trump in the 2024 election, both of whom stood the establishment\u2019s Trump-as-a-threat-to-democracy narrative on its head.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think there\u2019s a threat,\u201d retired aircraft mechanic and current election worker Gary Butcher said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYeah? And the threat comes from?\u201d Salvanto asked.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI hate to say it this way, but from the Democrats,\u201d Butcher replied after a deep breath.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey put in a lot of laws here in Nevada because of COVID. And we have a Democratic-controlled legislature. They made that ruling that everybody got a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/new-poll-alleges-20-mail-voters-admit-cheating-2020-media-silent\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">mail-in ballot<\/a>,\u201d the retired mechanic added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo in your perfect world, everybody would show up in person to vote\u201d Salvanto said in the declaratory tone interviewers often use in place of actual questions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes,\u201d Butcher replied. He then explained that he worked the state\u2019s 2024 Republican caucus, which featured voter IDs, paper ballots and same-day counting.<\/p>\n<p>Democrats, of course, have staked everything on the false narrative that they stand as a bulwark against Trump\u2019s anti-democratic ambitions.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, it cannot please them to hear a perceptive voter in a presumptive <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/trumps-good-news-deep-blue-new-england-state-creates-9-swing-states-now-play-polls-show\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">swing state<\/a> telling a CBS audience that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/fauci-finally-admits-everyone-already-knew-6-feet-covid-rule-humiliating-testimony\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">COVID authoritarians<\/a> and promoters of mail-in ballots pose the real threat to democracy.<\/p>\n<p>Nor could it please them to learn that another perceptive voter has seen through their relentless, Soviet-style persecution of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/evils-sufferable-trump-verdict-2024-election-lessons-learned-1775-76\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Trump<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier in the segment, Salvanto spoke with Brooke Westlake, a Nevada entrepreneur.<\/p>\n<p>Westlake explained that she plans to cast her vote against President Joe Biden, under whom the state of the country has declined to a condition that she rated as \u201ctwo thumbs down, really bad.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>More importantly, however, she regarded her choice as primarily a vote for Trump.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s definitely against Joe Biden,\u201d she said. \u201cBut it\u2019s way more in support of President Trump.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Salvanto then asked a question about Trump that no <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/establishment-media-burns-donald-trump-again-after-former-president-grants-them-exclusive-interview\/\" title=\"Establishment Media Burns Donald Trump Again After Former President Grants Them Exclusive Interview\">establishment media figure<\/a> ever asks about the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/watch-witness-impeachment-hearing-says-joe-biden-big-guy-china-deal\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">corrupt<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/bidens-declaration-war-4-takeaways-state-union-address\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">diabolical Biden<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIs he somebody that you feel your kids can look up to? Is he somebody that represents your values?\u201d Salvanto asked.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes,\u201d Westlake replied before explaining that she took her oldest child to a Trump rally. She also indicated that she hopes to meet Trump someday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI want to meet a strong individual who\u2019s been attacked left and right. That takes \u2014 it takes a lot of guts when people keep coming at you,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Then came the question that Salvanto posed to Butcher.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDo you think American democracy, as you think about it, is secure or threatened right now?\u201d the CBS reporter asked.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t think that we have a free country right now,\u201d Westlake replied.<\/p>\n<p>Salvanto asked what she sees happening that would lead her to that conclusion.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI see an influx of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/conservative-parents-raise-teens-better-mental-health-study\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">mental illness<\/a> on children.
