    The United States population democratically elected Donald Trump less than a year ago. Only 30% opposed his election.

    At best, you are arguing that 70% of a population does not equal a population.

    But let’s move beyond the election.

    The US is not yet a dictatorship. That said, the administration is pushing it closer to that point every day. The population still has the power to stop that. What are they doing wield that power? Not much.

    I am afraid we disagree strongly on how accountable we need to hold “the population”. They are at best complicit and at worst collaborators. Either way, they should not be defended.
