Vice President JD Vance is setting journalists straight on the difference between democracy and oligarchy. He gave them a quick reminder that President Donald Trump is acting with authority entrusted to him by the American people who voted him back into office. Vance says the oligarchs are the unelected government officials who keep trying to block Trump’s voter-sanctioned agenda.

Memo to the press:
When a president is elected by the People and then does what he promised to do, that’s democracy.
When a president is thwarted by unelected bureaucrats, that’s oligarchy.
President Trump refuses to bend the knee to that oligarchy. Buckle up!

The way Vance sees it, the press is taking the side of the bureaucratic state. Posters say the bureaucrats need to step aside and let Trump do what he was elected to do.
He’s doing exactly what we elected him to do.
Everyone else can cope harder.

Commenters are impressed by the energy Trump is showing despite efforts to slow him down.
Lol, we’re not even 2 weeks into this Presidential term; keep up this momentum, and we really will land on Mars within the next 4 years.

What’s crazy is the idea it’s exceeding our expectations. That’s how beaten down we had become.

Like Vance said, he and Trump are not oligarchs, they’re fighting them. We’re not sorry that our democratically elected President is defeating unelected oligarchs every day.
