We are a republic you dip BEEP

[unixfox]

FUBO!

It’s the new Dem/media talking point. “If Trump wins in 2024, it’s the end of democracy”.

Yes, we are a representative republic, but the target audience couldn’t tell you the difference. This is all about making Reps look scary, because the Dems have nothing else.

STFUBHO

[Seruzawa]

He’s kinda right except not in the way he thinks.

[TLI]

Well, well, little bammy is back.

The prog must really believe they are in big trouble.

The damn democrats are substituting jan. 6 for the Trump-Russian conspiracy since that fell apart.

[Williams]

Lol I would agree with that headline we are under greater threat with
Biden as president.

[Responsibility2nd]

Well, well. I finally agree with Barack Obama. We ARE at greater risk since 1/6.

[MattMusson]

Proof - Washington is still TERRIFIED of Donald Trump!

[Michael.SF.]

“our democracy is at greater risk today than it was back then.”

We all know what he means, though he said "democracy" and not "republic". He is right.

If Schumer gets the John Lewis voting Rights act passed, our country, as we know it, will not be the same, as long as that law is in effect.

[Williams]

How did a protest/ riot that got into our Capitol building for a few hours show that our democracy is fragile?
You can always count on BO to spout BS.

[Yo-Yo]

You think this is bad, Barry? Wait until November 8th, 2022!

[Lurkinanloomin]

Our REPUBLIC was killed by ALL of our elected and appointed when they swore in this ineligible Kenyan from Indonesia on Usurpation Day, January 20, 2009.

[SaxxonWoods]

Liberals always call it “their” democracy, meaning not yours, but government’s. Which of course is a non-sequiter.

[blueunicorn6]

Obama released a statement?

Don’t be downwind from him when he releases a statement.

[Sarcazmo]

MORE projecting. They’re telling us what they’re going to do....

[blackdog]

No, his Authoritarian regime is at great risk if they get caught rebranding and changing definitions.

[Phlap]

Good to know Barry thinks Joe is a bigger threat that Don(only his closest friends call him Don). Just sayin.

[fortes fortuna juvat]

This country is a Republic and BHO is one of its foreign enemies who should be in prison!

[Bruce Campbells Chin]

Honestly, the whole "we are a republic not a democracy line is getting a bit overblown, and derails a bunch of legitimate discussions. The word "democracy" can have different meanings, and you can have a "direct democracy" where everyone votes on every issue, or a "representative democracy" which is essentially a republic.

The more important response to what Obama says is that if the people don't have the right to elect whomever they wish, then you don't have a democracy or republic period. So it is him saying that we have to stop certain people from getting elected that is fundamentally undemocratic or anti-republican.

The semantic "we're not a democracy" argument just gets old after awhile.
