Democracy is wrong.

That’s why our Founding Fathers set up a limited government constitutional republic.

They knew mob rule would bankrupt the country.

And they were right.

Democracy is wrong.

Why do you think that democracy is wrong?

According to Merriam Webster dictionary the full definition of democracy is:

1 a : government by the people; especially : rule of the majority

2 : a political unit that has a democratic government

3 capitalized : the principles and policies of the Democratic party in the United States 4 : the common people especially when constituting the source of political authority

5 : the absence of hereditary or arbitrary class distinctions or privileges

We are a democratic Republic


Communism and dictatorships are the opposite of democracy

Democracy is two wolves and a sheep deciding on a dinner menu. We have a Republic, "If we can keep it".
