The dems keep responding the attack on Ukraine as an attack on "Democracy". Ukraine is NOT a democracy. And no matter how much the dems want to re-label, re-imagine, re-invent democracy to suck us into a war, don't let them and don't fall for the LIE!

A few years ago "war on democracy" registered with high reactions in their test groups. So they now use it for everything.

7 leaders of the democrat party that are heavily invested in companies like Raytheon and Lockheed Martin said this invasion is a threat to "MUH DEMOCRACY".

The president of Ukraine is elected by direct popular vote. The last election ended with two rounds as no candidate won enough of a majority in the first round of voting. As far as presidential elections are concerned they’re more democratic than the US.

Yeah they are really trying to sell the "Ukraine is a democracy" bullshite. I've even heard several prominent GOP lawmakers refer to it that way. Further proving that most Republicans are on the same team as Democrats.

Ukraine's elections are rigged worse than ours.

Except the opposition party kills and jails political opposition.

Ukraine is only a democracy insofar you vote for the leadership.

Is that why the US meddled in the election previously and overthrew the democratically elected government of Ukraine?

Then how the f**k did a comedian defeat the incumbent in 2019? Especially when that incumbent was one of the country's biggest oligarchs?

So what is it?

Eta: OP is a dumbass. Ukraine is more of a “democracy” than the United States in terms of electoral processes. On top of that, only an idiot would think that someone like Zelensky would win a “fixed” election.

We will continue to support Ukraine's efforts to restore its territorial integrity and counter Russian aggression," U.S. Special Representative for Ukraine Negotiations Kurt Volker said on Twitter.
