Trump isn't putting democracy at risk. You, however, would put republicanism at risk. It was republicanism that the Framers wrote into the constitution, not democracy. The ACA is opposed my most Americans, and was not even understood by the Democrats who pushed it through. Equal rights for the marginalized? In this country, a homeless man is equal before the law to a billionaire, except that if the homeless man is black, he gets affirmative action. Affordable college tuition? Obama promised free college tuition --- on the backs of our children, who'll be paying outrageous tax bills until they die.  What?  Someone told you things like college were free?  You really do believe in Santa Claus. LGBT rights?  Like what? To marry? Use of that word to apply to two men or two women solidifying their union around the act of sahdamy is obscene.  Voting rights? Like the Obama Justice Department refusing to enforce Section 8 of the Voting Rights Act if it didn't impact blacks? And I hate Trump!
