The index you linked to is published by The Economist, a major pro-capitalist oligarchy mag, you citing it as objective is like when the IDF investigates itself.

Yet even they admit the US is far from a full democracy. It's kind of like the Roman Republic. Was that more of a democracy than the Roman Empire? Yes. Was it a truly participatory democracy? No.

They are consistently anti-Trump.

If they're so horrifically biased towards capitalism, why do they rank Sweden over the US?

Again, you're basically just a conspiracy theorist throwing darts at a board blindfolded. You don't have anything to say about the methodology of this index, or an alternative index you prefer and why. You're just making bold assertions based on clickbait you read.
