Some grade 9 ass shit. A republic IS a democratic structure of government. It's representative democracy.

I think what they're getting at is that majority does not neccesarily rule in the US. You can have an election where a majority of voters go one way but the electoral college (your representation) goes another.

Idk why they want to harp on that right now but whatever.
