It certainly is when totalitarian leftists like those two are in office.

Disclaimer; We are a representative republic. I know we are not a democracy.

We are a representative republic.

We are a Constitutional Republic.
There would be no representation without the Constitution having established it.

Without a Constitution there are no chains on the representatives.

...in questions of power then, let no more be heard of confidence in man, but bind him down from mischief by the chains of the constitution:...
I. Jefferson’s Draft, [before 4 October 1798]

Don't forget about the Articles of Confederation (1777)

We weren't always a Constitutional Republic either.
