... I think you as well as a large number of pundits are confusing denial of a loss with disbelief so many people would vote against Democracy. I am in disbelief and confounded that my assertions that the electorate is stupid/ignorant may have been understated. I have to conclude Americans as a whole no longer believe Democracy as an idea is valuable.
I don't think most Americans know what the word "Democracy" means. I've found that most Americans don't know what a lot of words mean, but they'll argue until they're red in the face about them.
For those people, I've coined a new portmanteau - ignorrogant. They are ignorant, and absolutely arrogant about it!
