While the first two may be legitimate differences over policy, they pose no threat to democracy.” Here is an actual quote from Newsday: “Thousands of protesters at more than a dozen locations from Port Washington to East Hampton rallied Saturday to denounce what they view as an increasingly authoritarian regime under the Trump administration. … Dozens of protesters interviewed in Mineola, Port Jefferson and Patchogue voiced concern over ... by Staff Writer
