I’m reading about the “Concert of Democracies” idea put forward by neocons back during the Bush 43 administration. It would hypothetically be an alternative to the United Nations which would only allow democracies to become members.
In light of anti-United Nations sentiment among Trump and the GOP majority, two questions:
1. Would this Council of Democracies be a good alternative to the U.N.?
2. In our current conditions, and in light of our favorite admonition that “America is not a democracy”, would we even pass the necessary criteria for membership in this “Concert of Democracies”?
