Both things can be true. America is proof of this. Our freedom is the reason we ended up with the stupid fascist president two times. We had a (mostly) free and fair election and we used that to be really, really dumb.

Our freedom is the reason we ended up with the stupid fascist president two times.

Nope. Blind belief that a 1700s system would adequately protect the will of the people against 21st century bad actors including the kinds of mega corporations that didn't exist for decades if not a century after the founding.

We had a (mostly) free and fair election

Nope. Very far from it.
