He should take off that hat in the Oval Office.

Hey, “Progressives “ to quote Obama: Elections have consequences. In case you missed it, Donald J Trump won. This is what democracy looks like!
I voted for this!

A democracy is a political system in which the people periodically, by majority vote at the polls, select their rulers. The rulers then have absolute power to make whatever laws they please, by majority vote among themselves.

In a constitutional Republic, the people also, by majority vote at the polls, select rulers, who make laws by majority vote among themselves; but the rulers cannot make any laws they please because the Constitution severely restricts their lawmaking power.

The ideal of a democracy is universal equality. The ideal of a constitutional Republic is individual liberty.

In this century, great strides have been made toward the goal of subverting our Republic and transforming it into a democracy. One tactic of the subverters is subversion of language. By calling the United States a democracy until people thoughtlessly accept and use the term, totalitarians have obscured the real meaning of our principles of government.

Dan Smoot Report, 1966
I would prefer a Republic to either a democracy or a bureaucracy.

This is what the Deep State is: a bureaucracy, its beneficiaries, and its defenders.

Our Nation is a Republic, NOT a Democracy. Our Founding Fathers set it up as a Republic, but only works if the elected officials vote the will of the people. They don’t.

The vast majority of Republics eventually fail because of corruption.
