I don't see how you can separate the two EE.
Trump the man is an embarrassment to the world as Representative of the USA.
The endless lies like no other!
Fuck,I swear Hitler had more credibility than Trump!
Trump sees everything thru the POV of what's in it for me!
Won't take responsibility for his actions.
Trump will be the down fall of America!

He's not doing a good job as President.
He now wants to give farmers $12B in welfare, borrowed from China, because of the Trade War he started with China.
So Trump will be forcing us to pay interest to China to bail out farmers who were harmed by Trump's trade war with China.
Conservatives are fucking idiots.

So you like tariffs and are against free trade? And jacking up the debt is now good. And treating our allies like shit while hugging dictators is fine? I don't like the job he is doing at all. I do not want environmental protections destroyed. I don't want 300 plus billion a year wasted on the military. I don't like a president who lies endlessly. Nor one that wants to lock up hillary for not securing her server well enough, but he tweets everything to the world. How secure is twitter? I don't think much of your analysis.
The literal definition of a republic is: a state in which supreme power is held by the people and their elected representatives, and which has an elected or nominated president rather than a monarch.
They can pretend to be a "socialist republic" but the reality is there is no free election. It isn't a republic. "Islamic republics", the same issue. Much like East Germany used to call themselves the "German Democratic Republic" but were neither democratic, nor a republic... without actual representation, it just isn't a republic.
Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
- -- Aristotle
Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
- -- The Buddha
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
- -- Aristotle
To be accurate we have a democratic republic.

We have the intellect to imagine the finality of our own demise but do not have the sophistication to overcome our survival instinct and accept it.
Solution? Magical thinking and childish promises of everlasting life.
Ergo, religion.
rac·ist
rāsəst/noun
a person who believes that a particular race is superior to another.
Ask yourself honestly if this describes what you believe to be true.
If the answer is yes, you are a racist.

Republicans seem to hate the word "democracy" because it can be conflated so easily with capital D Democratic party. They are so possesed that they can not bring themselves to use proper english and use the ignorant term "Democrat party " instead of the proper adjective form "Democratic party".( thanks Ronnie).
Republicans, it seems, do not mind appearing to be ignoramuses if they feel they are scoring a fraction of a point for the GOP.
It is a sad commentary to have to note that they will deny that our system of choosing our representative government is a democracy, for the same stupid ignorant partisan reason.
It's like dealing with children.
