What's undemocratic about it?

It's really not undemocratic, but rather the crudest form of democracy.

Often times when someone makes a complaint about something in America not being democratic, or something along those lines, there will be at least one response similar to the following: "America isn't a democracy it's a republic."

Or they - I'm going to say whine - about the electoral college.

And then they'll proceed to say how we need to protect American democracy in other threads.

The EC is a terrible and broken system made out of laziness and oppression, not my fault it sucks.

Is he back to complaining about how the constitution has too many checks and balances in it so he can't do whatever he wants yet?

The Senate must go to a 51 vote majority instead of current 60 votes. Even parts of full Repeal need 60. 8 Dems control Senate. Crazy!

How many laws got passed in the previous 8 "senates"? Anyone know?

It's more amusing to me because this bill failed because Republicans couldn't even get 50 votes together, since they deliberately crafted it in a way to ensure that the filibuster couldn't be used at all.

I guess in that sense Donnie is a true Republican, he knows that even when it makes no sense you still blame the Democrats for everything.

It's not quite doublethink, but it sure is pancakery.

It's only a problem if you live in anything west of Ohio and south of Michigan and is really bad outside the Old Northwest.

Only a problem if you live on the coast or outside the Old Northwest (mostly, west of the Mississippi).
