@ThomasEWoods lots of pols use "democracy" for shorthand or as a flourish, but he's making a more literal argument about our system of gov't -

@mattklewis Eh, even there. "We're not a democracy" is a lot to expect. Reagan described the West as democracies: http://voicesofdemocracy.umd.edu/reagan-evil-empire-speech-text/ … -
@ThomasEWoods Reagan contributed to the confusion for rhetorical reasons, but Trump is arguing anything but direct democracy is illegitimate -

@mattklewis At this rate, you will never be Trump's press secretary.
