The United States was never set up to be a democracy but a Republic. Even Ben Franklin knew it wouldn't last forever. It would eventually succumb to a corrupt people who would elect corrupt leaders.
Republics can be democracies. They are called democratic republics.

They also can't understand this basic truism.
