To a Leftist, “Democracy” is a code word for “socialism”. In that sense, she is correct, that Trump is anti-socialism. This is why the Left hates him so much, because he may roll back some of their “progress”.
Yes, democracy is that humanist socialism whereby someone can violate the law as a collective if that collective feels like it
Democracy is code word for illegal aliens crossing the border and hating America vs “undemocratic” legal aliens who earn their citizenship and cherish their new country they helped built
My thinking is along the lines of what you just said.
Pure democracy is a simple case of 4 fox, a coyote and two chickens deciding what’s for lunch. And with a properly indoctrinated voting public, this fits nicely with socialism.
