OPINION:


As Election Day approaches, Democrats are doubling down on their claim that Republicans in general and former President Donald J. Trump represent an existential threat to American democracy. Democrats hope such hyperbole will distract from our very real national problems while mobilizing Democratic voter turnout. Even better, they hope to dissuade some marginal Republicans and independents from voting on Nov. 8.

This makes sense to Democratic political warriors who know that off-year elections are less about persuasion than turnout. Besides, with an unpopular president presiding over a disastrous economy and a swiftly unraveling foreign policy, there’s nowhere else to go. Whether the strategy works or not remains to be seen but win or lose the collateral damage to U.S. institutions, the political process, and the future credibility of Democrats with the very voters they are courting is incalculable.

If Democrats believe that Mr. Trump or MAGA supporters are a threat to democracy, the cynical expenditure of as much as $53 million dollars in more than half a dozen states to help Trump loyalists win their GOP primaries must strike some of their own voters as marginally insane. History tells us that we must always be careful of what we wish for because we might get it — as happened in 1980, when President Jimmy Carter fervently hoped for the chance to run and win against a California actor he knew he could beat.
