A democratic that is average at democracy is better than a conservative who is great at authoritarianism.

"average at democracy" is when you aggressively expand the world's largest police state while persuing a policy of genocide.

Most people wanted to stop sending money for wars, and Democrats kept sending money for wars. Most people wanted to defund the police and democrats tripled the police budget. That is not a democracy. That is the total opposite of a democracy.
