The senate, and SCOTUS are verrrry democratic.

Not having primaries for either of the two available parties is very democratic.

The electoral college is the most democratic way to make sure the minority voice maintains a dictatorship.

If he meant "this system isn't democratic enough", hard agree. It sounded like the "the founders wanted a republic and we should stop trying to be a democracy" you hear from MAGAs.
