Except one does not contradict the other. The United States has supported democracy, it's just that that support had been razor thin. Now, I think it's pretty clear they are openly shitting on it under Trump.

If we are playing silly semantics then Russia is a "democracy" as well and Trump is supporting "democracy".

Nothing silly here. “Fact checker” twisting Bernie’s words. Sad to be corrected yourself?
