New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said on CBS’ “Face the Nation” that the U.S. is suffering from a “democracy problem” and blamed that on Republicans.

Democracy?
@thehill let's start with USA isn't a democracy it's a constitutional republic. Although I'm not surprised the communist mayor doesn't know

It’s an idiotic thing to say because the whole point of a free society is for citizens to CHOOSE when and where they make their voices known. But in one case, he may have a point.
He may be right. After all, de Blasio DID get ELECTED.
We may have two problems, our candidates and our voters. https://t.co/sAa1dEy7hb— a proper gander ͡° ͡° (we deploribus, unum) (@thxUSA) June 7, 2015

@weeklystandard Considering he was actually elected, I think he might have a point.

@weeklystandard in other words, the stupids that elected me may be outvoted because I suck, I deserve a lifetime appointment

There is a problem in this country for sure, and it’s that the principles upon which the nation was founded are eroding rapidly.
