The US doesn't have a democracy and never has.
Trump was already president once and we didn't have "a complete breakdown of democracy."
If the US doesn't have democracy then "negotiation voting" will do nothing either.
That's not really true. Pretty much every system needs some buy-in from the masses. Even a king can be swayed by the threat of a peasant uprising.
Also, saying it's not a democracy isn't the same as saying that votes have no affect on the outcome. The Holy Roman Emperor was elected, but that doesn't mean the empire was a democracy.
