Fake News Banned

[Earl]

The Weimar Republic was, in formal terminology, a democratic republic, as is The United States a democratic republic, commonly referred to as it has been referred to ever since the founding: a democracy. Basic stuff. Unfortunate if you haven't learned this though I suspect you probably did learn it, if not sooner then in high school, and now ideology has taught you to unlearn it. Go fuck yourself for that willing stupidity.

The CIA says no, Marty:

United States:

Government type:​	***Constitution-based federal republic***

Poor Marty.

Thanks, Earl. I guess in Trump's America the last word on a subject goes to the CIA. I think you'll find encyclopedias and historians still prefer "democratic republic". For example, the term distinguishes us from The Peoples Republic of China which also has a constitution.

Actually, Marty, the Constitution requires a Republican form of government and since we are bound by the Constitution, this country’s form of government Is a Constitutional Republic.

See how easy that was, Marty.

De nada, Marty.

Poor Marty.

Where does the Constitution explain what a "Republican form of government" is?

 

[Earl]

Earl, that's quite the interpretation.

Yes…

A republican government is a system where power rests with the people, who elect representatives to make laws and run the country for the common good. [1, 2, 3, 4]
The word comes from the Latin phrase res publica, which means "public affair" or "public thing.”

Accurate, right?

 

[Earl]

Where does the Constitution explain what a "Republican form of government" is?

They knew what it meant and it is true today:

Republic vs. Democracy

• • Republic: Focuses specifically on how power is structured and derived from the people through a system of representation and a constitution. [1, 2]
  • Democracy: Focuses on who holds the power and how decisions are made (either directly by the people or through elected officials). [1]
  • Most modern republics are also representative democracies, meaning the two terms overlap significantly in everyday use. However, a country can be a democracy without being a republic (such as the United

It’s a stain on our educational system that you and many other far left loons don’t understand it.

So you lied.

The exact wording in Article IV, Section 4 states: [1]

"The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence."

If this is too difficult for the far left loons to understand, ask an eighth grade Civics student.

Where does the Constitution explain what a Republican government is? Lying piece of shit.

Everything CNN reports is fake? What if they show a tape of Trump speaking. Is that fake?

Funny how MAGATs and other RWNJs claim to adore and uphold the Constitution, but are overcome with glee when it's violated by their #MaliciousMessiah, isn't it?

Try to focus, earl. The question is whether "democratic republic" is the more commonly used descriptive term. Also, you're trying too hard.

Dopes like Earl have no idea what the Constitution says. He never read it.
