The “republic” part implies the people hold the power, elect their representatives, and elect (or appoint) a president–not a monarch. It is undoubtedly true that the United States is a constitutional republic, meaning the country rests its foundation on a constitution–the supreme law of the land. Moreover, a “republic” is a form of government where the people hold the power. However, the representatives that Americans democratically elect exercise that power and do so subject to the rules of the Constitution.Article 4 Section 4 of the Constitution

We are a representative democracy.
The perfect example is the electoral college. We don't vote for the president on a 1:1 basis. Depending on where you live, your vote can have more or less power.Article 4 Section 4 of the Constitution

Also, it's important to protect the rights of the minority. Which is what a constitution does. We can't do that and have a pure democracy at the same time.

Yes, you quoted the constitution and yes: The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government - but you are not including that this Republic Form of Government is democratically elected.Article 4 Section 4 of the Constitution
