First of all, it’s constitutional republic not democracy. Hard earned monies from US taxpayers laundered left and right and our education systems produced dummies, can’t read and right, can’t do math, can’t construct a sentence, teaching all craps like DEI, genderism

The US is both a constitutional republic and a representative (indirect) democracy. Citizens elect officials who make laws under constitutional limits, not pure majority rule. Republic and representative democracy describe the same system here—one is not the opposite of the other.
