 For the last 75 years I agree.  
This
Time
Is
Different.

Trump is not the traditional right in the same way that JFK wasn’t the traditional left. 
They are/were a threat to the system you’re referencing.

 I hope that's the case this time round. 
 Trump is portrayed as a threat

I think the real threat is that he exposes that elected officials have virtually no power and thus democracy was fake all along

(which Biden and Harris also expose in a different way)
