There is always conflict when members of the GOP(or is just those MAGA individuals?) seem to never believe the results of an election when I goes against them. Something about not being able to smell the BS they are shoveling, but I digress. Suffice to say the red wave, hurricane, blood letting was but a pink mist, regardless of what everyone on whatever political news channel was touting.
So you don't like how individuals make their own decisions? Not very supporting of an individuals rights in how they wish to caucus. I am sure in history there have been independents that caucuses with whatever other party including the republicans.
I know, if you don't like how the rules are written, you can hold a vote for it. But alas, you won't seem to believe the results when they go against your preconceived results.
Tail-gunner Joe. Yes, let us not forget that McCarthy(a republican) was so set to find those boogeyman that where plotting to do nefarious things, i.e. naming a c4ime and finding people who fit in that box.
As for the notion, yes it is technically correct that we are not a democracy and are a democratic republic. So is it just the bad use of the word, democracy or do you wish to to hold to the exact definition of the word? I can see if you wish to go to that exacting notion, be used directly against those people who are talking about bad things like coups and murder of people.
I will blame the media for it. The need to get that sound bite, to push the biggest narrative with the least amount of words. And while every child in America who says the pledge of allegiance, they are not also taught what exactly that means. The GOP rails against material not taught in school, but they care not for what exactly IS taught in school. We say we a democracy, but live in a republic. So should we just keep the accepted narrative of our democratic name or always be so precise to be "That guy"?
To me it is more of the practice versus the actual governmental form. We in a democracy have rights and vote on them. That is the simplest way to describe the practice.
