Trump wins again

[Desiremakesmeweak]

LOL.

...Just pre-empting the news before it happens for ya.

 

[Adre]

Yeah, he drew a “crowd” of 100,000 people with nothing else to do in a country of 1,000,000,000. Consider me impressed.

In fairness to the President, he warned us during his campaign there would be a lot of winning.

And he draws bigger crowds here in the US than any other candidates.

What's going to impress you about his crowd sizes - when the Martians come down to attend?

I’d be impressed if people paid to get in. Plenty of easily entertained yahoos will go see any President at the drop of a (MAGA) hat.

Yeah, I heard his inaugural crowd was the biggest ever, too!

Maybe when the crowds stop walking out in the middle of his speeches.

Give it time and his speeches will be surrounded by armed guards, and people will be shot for leaving early or not paying the proper worship to Trump.

I hope everyone enjoyed American democracy while it lasted.

Yay. MAGA!

...It's never been a democracy - it's a representative Republic.

Dumbass a Representative Republic is a form of Democracy.

So to put it in an analogy maybe you can understand a Car is a type of Automobile, where the Automobile is the lowest common denominator just as truck is a type of automobile or an SUV...

Not it's not - a 'deme-ocracy' is rule by majority vote of the 'demos,' being the citizens of a place who are citizens of age for no other reason than that they are listed as living there.

A 'Republic' on the other hand, exists exclusively for the benefit of those who have MEMBERSHIP as equals in 'THE' group, based on whatever reason they have that membership, money, the ability to supply soldiers, food, supplies, and a REPRESENTATIVE Republic is reduced one step further to the power being in the hands of those nominated to REPRESENT divisions within the group.

There is a vast range of UN-equals inside the layers of people who reside inside the United States and who are NOT represented at all, and never will be.

There are 'democratic styles' of voting inside the US Republic, but not even that is true in terms of the Speaker of the Senate and how the Supreme Court interprets laws and is formed by NOMINATION by Presidential (also, electoral college process) representative executive function and not by actual franchise democracy at all. Which effectively means that neither the lawmakers nor the law deciders are democratic instruments.

Nope, it's a federal republic

Boy, you sure go to a lot of trouble just not admitting to the fact the US is a form of Democracy. When you strip away everything, and only leave the method of representation there are only three type of Governments...

Monarch
Democracy
Oligarchy

So the US is what again of the above three....remember an automobile can have many makers and designs, but when you remove all the decoration, and look at the basics, a car is a car... no matter who made it, or how it drives....


What is the basic meaning of democracy?

The United States and Canada are democracies.
