It is a very flawed democracy but it's definitely attempting it. I find them disallowing felons from voting and the way the electoral college can, and has, allowed presidents to be elected while having less of the popular vote than the loser to knock it down many pegs on the democracy ladder. Hillary got 2.1% more of the popular vote in 2016 but lost. Defining "democracy" would take us two the rest of our lives but we'd never arrive at losing while ahead by 2.1% in a popular vote as the conclusion.
