It's a constitutional republic. If it were a "democracy", the country would be destroyed in a generation because the country would be run by the large cities and the rural and suburban areas' votes would have no influence in elections. "Democracy" is a liberal buzzword used to manipulate citizens into accepting progressive policies. We were founded as a constitutional republic. It's important that citizens understand and are willing to fight to preserve this.
...you have a firm grasp of the situational reality...
👆This is where we are at.
60 plus years (that I know of) they have gaslighted Democracy and now most have no idea!
100% correct. A demonocracy elects leaders to make decisions for the people, a constitutional republic elecs representatives to represent the people. We are living in a totalitarian state where unelected elites live off the backs of the people. Let's face the facts...
Let's change the facts. It's time.
While technically correct , it has been managed by a Corporation that operates as a Democracy for well over a hundred years. And I am in favor of "Reconstruction" of the Republic.
What happens to a congress when it loses it's quorum ?
Who teaches our children about the Constitution? That's why "democracy" used instead of Constitutional Republic. Heck, the teachers were probably brainwashed while getting educated in college about the terminology. What's sad is the kids in public schools cannot even read the original script of our Constitution because they do not teach cursive writing in our schools. Heck, the kids can barely WRITE their own name in cursive. If Q and Trump cannot grab hold of this government and turn it around, America will no longer exist. All it will be is a nation that pays the NWO to keep its citizens alive with a fixed amount of money per month.
