Compound Republic.

The term I provided does not exclude a Constitution.
Constitutional Republics don't not have to include Democratically Elected Representatives.

At trump rallies, selling trump gear, some "good people" according to trump, Seig Heiling TO trump.....

A Republic can't be a Republic without a constitution.

So it's kind of a non sequitur to say constitutional Republic.

At trump rallies, selling trump gear, some "good people" according to trump, Seig Heiling TO trump.....

that explains why they are still fully stocked with their gear…nobody there to purchase the national socialist stuff

That's technically correct.

For some reason I've never liked that specific language, though.

I think the reason being is that it doesn't differentiate and emphasize relevance to the Federal Republic vs the State Republics.

That won't work.

Have to go to the Federalist (at the very least) for pure relevance.

I'd also add that what is Legal is very, very seldom Lawful.

And that's important, given the primary foundation for moral code which defines man's relationship to man and therefore man's relationship to government.

So we get into Liberty-Responsibility there. Which is fundamental to the tradional American philosophy of governance.

I didn't suggest there was the absence of a Constitutional Republic ...
Just that we have a Democratically Elected Representative Republic.

If you don't think that is what we have ... How so?

It doesn't matter if you like it ... It is correct ...

Anyway ... Good to see you, I just don't need to split hairs any more on it.
People tend to understand how things work when I use that definition.

Sometimes thoroughly, sometimes on the fly.
