If he's talking majority rule with no unalienable individual rights, he's correct. [More]
But he's not, of course.
I know you're not supposed to judge a book by its cover and all that, but why do these malcontent ideological freaks always look like they're insufferable @$$holes about everything?

"I just think that the President has no fidelity to fact or truth. And actually, in his comments the last few days, no fidelity to the Constitution of the United States," Pelosi said. "He and his henchmen are a danger, with their comments, are a danger to our democracy ... Why bother? He doesn't tell the truth. He isn't committed to our Constitution."

Democracy?
'According to quote trackers Bartleby and the Yale Book of Quotations, it first appeared in 1906 in the American Historical Review. But that doesn’t mean it comes from the 20th century; the Review was publishing for the first time the notes of James McHenry, a Maryland delegate at the Constitutional Convention.
This is what he wrote: “A lady asked Dr. Franklin Well Doctor what have we got a republic or a monarchy. A republic replied the Doctor if you can keep it.” '

"I pledge Allegiance to the flag
of the United States of America
and to the Republic for which it stands,
one nation under God, indivisible,
with Liberty and Justice for all."
Surely Speaker of the House Pelosi knows the difference between a democracy and a republic!
Of course, the opposite being true would go quite a ways toward explaining why she can't make her part of our Republic function.
