    Michael Malice Retweeted Ari Berman

    The concept of representation is the lie at the center of democracy. Every single state has a mix of pro- and anti-Trump voters, yet the minority in an election are represented by their opponents. This is considered to be a pro-democracy argument.https://twitter.com/AriBerman/status/1225167293518315521 …

    Mind-blowing stat: 48 Senators who voted to convict Trump represent 18 million more Americans than 52 Republicans who voted to acquit

        it becomes even more incoherent when a state has two senators who vote in opposite ways. further, note the implication that a majority is relevant when it comes to removing a president from office.

        As a New Yorker, I sometimes wonder what it must feel like to have your "democratically elected" representatives actually represent you...in any way whatsoever.

        The democracy wasn't clean or pure enough.

        Representation is actually a check against the potential for mob rule that comes w/pure democracy. The founders were fearful of the instability of a purely democratic vote. "If every Athenian had been Socrates, every Athenian assembly would still have been a mob." -James Madison

        We are mostly a republic with a flavoring of democracy add in. The republic as designed, and I would argue, designed well, is working just fine.

        The Senate is not representative of the population. That's the whole point of the Senate!
