CNN reporter denies that America is a republic

You people project far too much. Bill does not hate either man.

Oh but he does he has said so...

The man in your new avatar was a good president... and today he hates both Obama and Biden....

He was only "good" because Newt insisted.

He did well for the most part after the Republicans took over the House of Representatives after being in the minority for 40 years. Bill Clinton knew how to play politics.

The United States is a representative republic. That is a democratic form of government, but it is not a total democracy.

We the people do not vote on every initiative proposed by government. We elect representatives to do that.

/---/ And those cowardly representatives set up agencies that can make the tough rules and regulations, so the representatives can skirt blame from the voters.
"Oh Mr & Mrs Constituent. I agree that the new ATF regs are horrible, but it's out of Congress's hands. Oh, and don't forget to re elect me this November."

CNN Reporter Claims Trump Supporters Calling America A Republic Is ‘An Attack On Democracy’

A CNN reporter characterized supporters of former President Donald Trump describing the United States of America as a republic as “an attack on democracy.”

A CNN reporter characterized supporters of former President Donald Trump describing the United States of America as a republic as “an attack on democracy” during a segment that aired Sunday.

Multiple Trump supporters told CNN reporter Donie O’Sullivan that the U.S. was not a “democracy” in man-on-the-street interviews during the segment, instead describing it as a republic. O’Sullivan attempted to disprove their description in an interview with historian Anne Applebaum.

“America is a democracy. It was founded as a democracy,” Applebaum claimed after O’Sullivan asked her if the U.S. was a democracy.

“I’ve heard a lot of conspiracy theories. I hear a lot of things out on the road, but to hear Americans, people who would describe themselves as patriots, say that America is not a democracy, that stopped me in my tracks,” O’Sullivan told Applebaum.

Applebaum blamed Trump for the denials that the United States is a democracy.

“You are hearing people say America is not a democracy because there are people around Trump who want them to be saying that, who’ve been planting that narrative,” Applebaum claimed.

Article IV, Section 4 of the Constitution guarantees states a “republican” form of government, and historical records and documents show Founders like John Adams and Alexander Hamilton expressing skepticism about democracy.

“Honestly, the word ‘democracy’ and the word ‘republic’ have often been used interchangeably,” Applebaum claimed. “There isn’t a meaningful difference between them.”

“If they can convince people that we don’t have a democracy, then it’s okay that Trump is attacking democracy, because it doesn’t really matter,” Applebaum added.

James Madison outlined differences between pure democracies and a republic in The Federalist Number 10.

“There is, of course, a legitimate debate discussion to be had on what form of democracy we have here in the United States, direct democracy, representative democracy, in fact, constitutional republic, which you heard people mentioned in that piece, that is a form of democracy. But look, this is not actually a debate about government, about democracy, it’s an attack on democracy,” O’Sullivan told CNN host Omar Jimenez. “People have heard the warnings that Trump is a danger to democracy, and therefore you have people trying to convince others that, well, the United States isn’t a democracy in the first place, and therefore Trump can’t be a threat.”

Comment:
The Radical Left's use of the word "democracy" is misleading the dumb Democrat cultists.
What the Radical Left is calling a "democracy" is a one-party dictatorship.
The Democrats are attacking the 1st and 2nd amendments.
They want to abolish the Electoral College.
They want to stack the Supreme Court.
They want to allow non-citizens to erase the votes of American citizens.
They are breaking down the separation of powers.
America is a republic.

The elite or smarter ones on the left know the US is a Republic. They use these tactics on the knuckle dragging base scarring them into thinking if they vote for anyone else but the Democratic party they will lose Democracy.

The elite also want a pure Democracy so the lefty loons on the more populated East and West Coasts control the entire country. Do you want the idiots in California and New York fucking up your small town by the tyranny of the majority ?

We need to stop believing that TV makeup makes them intelligent.

Yep. And the only ones attacking what they call 'our democracy' is them.

I’m sure that is the problem as to why you can’t follow the thread.

I didn't saying anything about the Republican party moron, I'm a Constitutional Conservative I don't associate with the GOP. I adhere to the document that mention the Republic, but doesn't have one instance of the word Democracy.

The overwhelming majority of uneducated idiot's that believe the US is a Democracy are those who lean left and vote Democrat.

Constitutional Republic. The Founding Fathers made it very clear.

 

[Robert W]

"I pledge allegiance to the flag and...to the republic for which it stands..."

Does not mean America is not a democracy.

The battle over it being one or the other is so .. sophomoric.

The danger is Democrats deny it is a Republic and switch it to democracy.
So what is a Democracy. It is a unique form of Government where each decision for the public involves the members of the public actually voting on the issue. It works okay in small groups so our founders created a Republic.
