DeSantis is going to announce his run for the presidency next week.

Since A constitutional republic is made to protect the minority class I would say most.

Funny... I thought the constitutional republic was there to protect ALL citizens, not just the 'minority class'... whatever that is.

Those that seek to divide us as a nation, from abroad or within, are constantly trying to break us into ever further fractured sub-tribes - minority classes if you will - by religion, by skin color, by wealth, by sex, by political viewpoints, by educational background, by work ethic... And now by the 57 different genders the progressive political left seems to have fallen in love with.

Much easier to manipulate the U.S. when it's in such dysfunctional disarray. China knows this, so does Russia. Much easier to attack us if we're so busy fighting each other over what pronouns we feel we're owed - we wouldn't have a clue who sucker punched us that way.

As a society we need to drop all of the subclasses and start referring to each other just as 'fellow Americans'. All of the sub-classes and sub-genders and "hyphenated-American" titles that the Democrats seem to love dividing us up into will be the end of the Nation.

It’s as if they are taking direction from a book written in 1925.

Great point! Since when should the minority get to decide anything? We need to quit trying to please everyone.

Unless white people become the minority, then I'm all for it.

@Lip Shooter is correct - we are a Republic - not a Democracy.

I believe what is throwing you off is his use of "minority class". I don't believe it's "minority class" as in minorities based on race - but minorities based on beliefs. Minority -vs- Majority.

A Republic is representative government ruled by law - the Constitution.

A Democracy is direct government ruled by the majority - mob rule.

A Republic recognizes the inalienable rights of individuals while democracies are only concerned with group wants or needs (the public good).

If we were a Democracy - the majority could decide that everybody has to be a Christian. And the minority would have to obey the majority because the majority rules... But the minority, or "minority class", is protected under the Constitution as per Lippy's point.

So basically you just believe what you want to.

When someone tells you who they are believe them.

There's a difference between paying attention and paying attention to hyperbole. Trump and his critics are little but hyperbole. I won't vote for him in the primary but I will in the general because of what he Did during his tenure.
