have democrats not made similar statements about Trump, him being a danger to democracy and such?
In 2008-9 Republicans did not even make the pretense of Obama being a threat to democracy. (Which would have been absurd in a way it isn't for Trump, who tried to overthrow an election he lost.)
Sure. And Republicans, and many world leaders.
Trump is well outside the norms of POTUS's through history.
