Give us a single sentence definition of Democracy and Republic. No catch phrases or jokes just the straight definition that covers every use of the words. You are right that the USA is a Republic...but to criticize others we must know if you know what you're talking about about.
@@STho205 A republic is a form of government where the power rests with elected representatives and an elected leader, while democracy generally refers to a system where the majority rules, often through direct or representative voting. In a republic, there are constitutional protections for individual rights that prevent the majority from overriding them.
@@thewisecracker-rq1pu that is correct. But drop the last sentence as that is just POV rhetoric. Your two simple sentences are good objective definitions. Republics don't necessarily protect individuals or the state from individuals. China is a Republic. The USSR was a Republic...but then again so is the USA. The structure of the governments were similar but the methodology was different in practice. For instance the Electoral College doesn't protect the state from individuals...it simply forces the Republic to elect a president through the states....but the modern EC can't decide NOT to follow the democratic majority inside their states.
The Too Big To Rig crowd (Tobtor, henceforth) has my hats-off respect for proving me wrong. Throughout 2024, I'd say whenever the subject came up that with voting as increasingly digitized as it is, there's no such thing as "too big to rig," and that whatever rigging needed to be done by dems in PA, WI, and/or MI would be. On Nov. 5th, Tobtor proved me wrong. And I'm not unhappy about it.
There were less votes this rime around. So the dems could rig the larger election in 2020 without having control of the WH, but somehow just forgot to do it again?
Oh stop this shit. Democrats say we live in a Democracy, Republicans say we live in a Republic. We live in a Democratic Constitutional Republic. Literally have all the main aspects of both for checks and balances as a Democracy prevents the worst aspects of a Republic (A patriarchal theocracy) and a Republic prevents the worst aspect of a Democracy (mob rule). Its in how many founding fathers fucking letters and diaries? 20+ of them... They knew a PURE Democracy was bad and caused the downfall of every nation that used it and they knew a PURE Republic was bad because it ALWAYS led to an eventual tyrannical rule by the elite. So we have what we have. We DEMOCRATICALLY elect Representatives to serve in the government to be our voice and pass the laws. Term limits and needing the vote prevents families from becoming a dynasty via gaining power over generations and laws to lock it all into place.
I learned in school, over fifty years ago, that we have a republic; even the wall of congress behind the Speaker of the House of Representatives is adorned with a representation of the fasces of the Roman Republic and not with any Greek democracy representation.

Fun fact, “Under God” wasn’t added until 1954.

@AstroTheFungus you might want to read what you just wrote again. I started teaching civics and the constitution to the boy scouts of America about thirty years ago. The constitution is the founding law of the land. Everything else stems from it, and needs to not violate that core "law of the land" which it is. A law in the USA is invalid, null and void, if it violates it.
@@garyweston3269 yes, that’s true, but what I’m saying is that not everything we hold as common sense now is written explicitly in the constitution. Is the right to privacy ever specified? No, but we derive a specific conclusion from the general wording of the constitution. Even if nowhere in the constitution is the word “democracy” written, the fact that the very same constitution establishes the right to vote and the separation of power, two crucial components of any democracy, is enough for us to understand that the US can be labeled as a representative democracy. It fits the criteria, so therefore it is one, even if nowhere is it clearly stated.

2020 trump voters were/are still election deniers though, so obviously not the same since there is verifiable evidence from 2024 election results which calls into question the legitimacy of your "win"....as opposed to the fact that republicans NEVER provided any verifiable evidence for their claims about the 2020 election...which incidentally got them thrown out of courts across the country over 60 times. ; )

Trump only gained 3 million new voters And Harris seems to have lost 13million voters from the big win Joe had …. Which, given the hatred for DT is just not conceivable ….. So you can see why people were mistrusting of the “people’s vote”
No, they didn't have a change of heart. They never believed it in the first place. It was just a scare tactic that they were using to try to hold on to their power.
Representative Democracy is how we elect our Representatives to Govern and make laws so when people say "Our Democracy" or Democracy in general they are talking about the way we elect Representatives. Trump is absolutely a threat to that.

"Threat to democracy" is a scare tactic similar to "For the children! Think about the children"! The phrase has lost it's true meaning. Like beating a dead horse over and over again. When I hear "A threat to our democracy", I turn on Bevis and Butthead.

It's sad that Americans are so un-educated that they do not know that America is a Constitutional Republic. This idea was clearly stated in Aristotle's "Politics" that Democracy ONLY leads to tyranny and oligarchy. What are they teaching in college's? It's not correct history or how our government is setup. I here a lot of people throw these words around, but the more they talk, it's obvious they have know idea what the words mean or the implications of them in real life. We need our whole educational system changed back to teaching students real subjects that prepare them for real life.......
You are of course technically correct. But our government is founded on and works on Democratic principles. Meaning fairness such as "liberty and justice for all". Most people think of democracy in this way. Not just that "the majority rules" which is a flaw of a pure democracy. Fortunately, our founding fathers recognized this fact and created our constitution and national government accordingly. Not much point in continuing to beat the "Constitutional Republic" drum.
Hmmm. Electoral College votes...Repub. 312 Dem 226 = 38.1% win for Repub. The electoral college vote is what matters in our constitutional republic. Popular vote Repub. 77,303,428 Dem. 75,018,929 = 3.05% win for Repub. Please explain your numbers. I assume they are popular vote derived.
@@Yooper2024 Biden also won by similar numbers in the electoral college in 2020, yet the few republicans that admitted defeat never framed it as a landslide. Why should we label this one as a landslide?

Democrats way too quiet. Expect some antics before Jan 20th
He never was a threat. Also we live in a republic not democracy
Maybe. BUT, he is not a threat to our Republic.
The Republican National Committee(RNC) kept filing lawsuits when voter fraud was found.
Kamala had to be choking down her outrage……outstanding
He was only ever a threat to their power.
I VOTED. NO PROBLEM! DEMOCRACY IS ALIVE AND WELL!
Stop saying democracy, stop normalizing that word. We are a constitutional republic for crying out loud.
Omg still trying to push that Jan6 lie on Wiki. 😂😂😂
He is such a threat that the people who voted for Biden in 2020 didn't come out and vote in 2024. lol
It's sad that Americans are so un-educated that they do not know that America is a Constitutional Republic. This idea was clearly stated in Aristotle's "Politics" that Democracy ONLY leads to tyranny and oligarchy. What are they teaching in college's? It's not correct history or how our government is setup. I here a lot of people throw these words around, but the more they talk, it's obvious they have know idea what the words mean or the implications of them in real life.
We need our whole educational system changed back to teaching students real subjects that prepare them for real life.......
You are of course technically correct. But our government is founded on and works on Democratic principles. Meaning fairness such as "liberty and justice for all". Most people think of democracy in this way. Not just that "the majority rules" which is a flaw of a pure democracy. Fortunately, our founding fathers recognized this fact and created our constitution and national government accordingly. Not much point in continuing to beat the "Constitutional Republic" drum.
@anotherjoe5675 if you completely disregard the Marxist threat used by the Obama Biden admin under the guise of "democracy".
@@anotherjoe5675 SAY IT, CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC! Stop trying to explain democracy when the USA is a CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC!
@@davidwarren3433 Yes, constitutional republic founded on democratic principles. That's what I said.
It was all scare tactics
Sounds like commercialized terrorism to me.
They lost!!!!
He never was the threat. Can't say the same for Democrats.
The devil never stops fighting to make people hate each other.
GOD BLESS OUR REPUBLIC
Democracy is another word for socialism
Bill Cooper
Actually liberalism is another word for socialism.
It is too big to rig !!!
'HOw badly they lost"
1.56%. As opposed 8.1% Biden, and 3.1% Hillary
Hmmm. Electoral College votes...Repub. 312 Dem 226 = 38.1% win for Repub. The electoral college vote is what matters in our constitutional republic. Popular vote Repub. 77,303,428 Dem. 75,018,929 = 3.05% win for Repub. Please explain your numbers. I assume they are popular vote derived.
@@Yooper2024 Biden also won by similar numbers in the electoral college in 2020, yet the few republicans that admitted defeat never framed it as a landslide. Why should we label this one as a landslide?
@@Yooper2024 He can't explain the numbers. He's probably repeating something a CNN viewer said.
Looking forward to this beeach treason trial
The last man was the most "matter of fact" person I've ever watched on a random street interview. We need more of those men in the US. Smart, intelligent, well-spoken, articulate, and wise.
There are. The media just choose not to use them in their biased interviews.
The people who spoke, give me hope in democracy. We need more people like this and not celebrities and virtual signalers! Well done! Thank you
Thank god Trump won
What a stupid question.
When they talk about 'democracy' I think DPRK style.
at least we didnt have to go the second amendment way
That's a shame. He doesn't deserve to be in the District of Washington DC, let alone in the White House. We have never had a more embarrassing president in the history of our nation.
@@marshallvanstee9238you're absolutely right, O'Biden has been a complete disgrace and embarrassment to our Constitutional Republic.
@@marshallvanstee9238 I know, thank god Biden's out now. Most embarrassing president ever.
I give you kudos for being out there in this cold and snow!!
I wish people would get this straight. We are not a democracy. We are a constitutional republic, and hopefully we can hold onto it a lot longer.
Your question should actually be if these people actually know the meaning of democracy, which party actually circumvented the vote and the voters lmao, Semper Fi and Erin go braugh
I'm coming from a party that loses 350,000 children
I wonder what they sold for.
@johnhoran9840 probably half of them are geriatric Joe stash
I'm tired of hearing "solidarity".
We're not a nation of hippies.
Never has been
These people are out there 😂
If anyone had dared to vote against certification, the reading of the room was telling them that they would have been instantly put under cross-examination.
