I propose that we no longer use the words, "The Republican Party", in any discourse

Henceforth, they should be called "The Fascist Party". It is the most accurate description for them.

For years, they have tried to mock the Democratic Party by saying "The Democrat Party". It was ingrained in all the right-wing media outlets in this country. It was their way of attempted ridicule.

Turnabout is fair play. In my opinion, everyone should call them the "Fascist Party".

Because, that is what they are.

I will start using such terms as "Trump and his Fascist Party" instead of "The Republican Party."

And I won't stop until we have beaten Fascism into the ground.

Or, to hell with it, just plain "Nazis". If it offends them or hurts their feelings, be assured that's exactly what it's intended to do.

I totally agree.

Too bad they are too stupid to know what a Fascist is.

They will probably have T-shirts made.
