The Twisted Logic Podcast - Opinionated * Insightful * Irreverent

What is the US, a Democracy, a republic, neither, both, something else? And why does it matter?


Listen Later

Earlier this month, Republican Congresswomen Lauren Boebert tweeted a familiar refrain from republicans: “Our nation is a Constitutional Republic and our founders got it right.” She is not the first Republican to call the US Government a republic, confusing many that have always thought of our country as a democracy. So, is she and her fellow republicans correct? Or is the refrain from politicians past that we are a democracy more accurate? And really, why does it even matter?

This week on the podcast, Ras and Shawn discuss this topic, and try and come to a reasonable answer. 

Recorded live on the Stereo App January 20, 2022 (https://stereo.com/u/m21QaJ8CmjDv)
