The us system is so wildly undemocratic with its two party, first past the post, electoral college that definitionally it cannot be considered a democracy!

We can get into the philosophy of it, but Trump was as democratically elected as any other president in US history.

And you are telling me that Putin was elected democratically for the first round?

Until you can provide evidence to the contrary, yes.

-Yea, which is not democratic at all as the us is definitionally not a democracy!

-It literally has a wikipedia page(https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladimir_Putin%27s_rise_to_power)… Being oblivious does not equate to being a sceptic!
