Civics 101 - America wasn’t established as a democracy. It was established as a republic. Any Repubilc-an that doesn’t understand that should be expelled from the party.
I really hope we are seeing a purging and restructuring of the conservative party and that I am living through a political,change of monumental proportions. An historical,changing of the guards so to speak!
If President Trump runs for President in 2024, he needs to hammer home the point that our nation is not a Democracy but a Constitutional Republic. He needs to keep repeating that until folks finally start to realize that the left and the RINOs want this country to be fully fundamentally changed into a socialist/communist country.
“Democracy” isn’t mentioned once in the founding documents. Not in the Declaration of Independence. Not in the Constitution. Nor in the Bill of Rights. Just Sayin’. But, do you know what is mentioned?
“The states shall be guaranteed a republican form of government, and protected from invasion.”
Democracy is just two wolves and a sheep voting on what’s for dinner. They did everything they could to prevent Mob rule or Mobocracy, as well as Monarchy, or rule by strong arm dictatorship. Federalism was dealt a huge setback by direct election of the Senators.
So the possibility of being elected by a majority of voters is now “frightening”…
Still not a democracy, but thanks for playing.
We can only hope.
Constitutional Republic aside, it's most entertaining watching the losers say that "democracy" is in danger when it was the democratic process which voted them out.
Maybe they just don't know the meaning of the word. Perhaps they're confusing it with "plutocracy".
I’m not sure what’s confusing them, but they’re definitely confused.
Democracies are bad things. TRUE Republics are good and righteous.
The results in November will determine if it is a catastrophe or not.
Yes, we are a Constitutional Republic, but since we get to elect our representatives, this means we live in a democracy.
People get pedantic over this stuff.
Democracy (noun) "A system of government by the whole population or all the eligible members of a state, typically through elected representatives."
The joke is on us.
I wonder if it’s because they are essentially on the same side?
Let's say there is a group of 50 Republican Senators, 49 MAGA and 1 RINO. Guess which one becomes the MSM darling and defacto spokesperson for all of those Republicans?
Gates sounds exactly like the McCain family.
It sure is funny how both parties covered up McCain’s key involvement in the Russia hoax.
Also obvious fact that Graham ran for President under McCain’s direction as soon as it looked like Trump was going to be a contender.
So-called journalism at its finest.
Somebody needs to tell these morons that the “catastrophe” has already occurred. This country is in the toilet now. According to the DNC “media” toads. Their boy, the old pedophile has already saved the universe with his “big wins” and the ignorant bass turds living here have swallowed the RATS ass narrative, hook, line and sinker.
I wonder how they can declare this as a catastrophe of our democracy when it is clearly the wishes of the governed.
I am a native Arizonian, have moved back here 7 years ago, am active in GOP circles and have never heard of this spooge.
