    I agree but you see the "people" who adore the Dondonjohn  will see to it that never happens. Treason is fine with them. Selling us out to a hostile foreign enemy is great! Having our elections be a joke suits them to a T. Whatever the Dondonjohn tells them is fine with them.  They are so in love with him they are besotted. Whatcha gonna do?  I wish I  knew JG but I am stumped. Thank you for your reply and Happy Tuesday to thee! :)

    Some point out that that we are actually a "constitutional republic"---much like Trump evaluated his use of the phrase "prime the pump" as a really neat way of expressing his ideas.

    Sort of like saying rather than calling that butterfly a butterfly, one should refer to it as "one of the lepidoptera." 

    In both a republic and a democracy, citizens are empowered to participate in a representational political system. They elect people to represent and protect their interests in how the government functions.

    In a republic, an official set of fundamental laws, like the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights, prohibits the government from limiting or taking away certain “inalienable” rights of the people, even if that government was freely chosen by a majority of the people. In a pure democracy, the voting majority has almost limitless power over the minority.

    The United States, like most modern nations, is neither a pure republic nor a pure democracy. Instead, it is a hybrid democratic republic.

    The main difference between a democracy and a republic is the extent to which the people control the process of making laws under each form of government.
