It isn’t so black and white. Something can not be a free democracy, and also not be a dictatorship. Mostly because the power is shared between checks and balances that are slowly folding. But they still exist. A good example was that neither Biden nor Trump could perform said ban on their own, nor could they block said ban on their own.

It’s funny to lament the erosion of checks and balances: they’re one of the reasons the US is not and has never been a democracy. Why the US Government Can’t Get Anything Done
