I'll make this even simpler so that you won't go off the deep end again with a bunch of irrelevant comparisons.
You said "Compromise is the best approach to politics in which everyone gets a win."
Over the long run, compromise doesn't work as it s a TEMPORARY FIX, aka it can keep people happy at first, but eventually fewer and fewer people become happy as everything else erodes. Something always breaks for the reset button to happen. America over the last 60 years has been getting fucked by compromise both domestic and foreign.
And a nation where officials get elected based on how much lobbying and corporate funding they receive instead of the vote and interests of the people can't be considered a democracy. American democracy has eroded over the past 60 years.

Apparently 2 of 3 democratic leaning eligible voters want Biden to step down, more terrible numbers for a presidential candidate, let alone the incumbent president.

Actually, when we make politics, we do.
The question is, how much do we accept to compromise before refusing to compromise anything at all.
Social democracy is a compromise between materialism and idealism. Its a compromise between two vision of the world, between the idea that we must end capitalism and the idea that we must keep capitalism. It doesn't mean that is it good and it doesn't mean that it is efficient, but its a compromise between two visions of the world.
Some people do compromises with racism, some people make compromises with sexism, others with ableism and other oppressive ideas. They are not necessarily aware of it, but they do make compromise with those ideology for their own interest.
The question is, are you willing to make compromises with ideas that are you consider not justifiable. For example, are you willing to accept that people are in the streets to defend the meritocracy of your country ?
If yes, then you are making a compromise with poverty. If you consider that it is not acceptable, then you must refuse to align with the system and refuse ALL the possible compromises.
Because when you make a compromise with a person, you also make a compromise with the set of value of said person and her ideology.
So to answer you....
No. democracy is not always about compromise. Democracy is also the freedom to refuse any compromise. Its the freedom to refuse injustices.

Why are you still riding the conspiracy brained bs? My comment was still sarcastically and a gibe against the cheapfakes allegations from people like Roo.
Lose yourself a bit for real and stop throwing tantrums and argue for the sake to argue in an anger way like Alex Jones would do for real.
No sense of humor.

Trump distancing himself from Project 2025 shows that some Elites is preparing for his presidency.
Some are working to help his campaign and lessen his rhetoric as well as lessen to push him to more moderate position
This might the best way because Biden ain't gonna win, just disaster after disaster for the guy.
Dems can't even get a decent candidate and now it might be too late
