to the faces of Magats who inhabit my town.

I also think they say Democrat party because it ends in -rat and they think that's clever.

For me it speaks to their fecklessness (can't) and their superficial similarity to humans as in Bladerunner's android 'replicants'.

When our Constitution was created, Benjamin Franklin famously said we have "a republic -- if we can keep it."

Today's RepubliCON Party is destroying our Constitutional republic. Their leader is a CON man and a CONvicted felon.

the origin of "Democrat Party" was to emphasize "rat", RepubliCON is an excellent choice.

Or Reichwingers.

They want to disrespect everybody and use childish insults instead of policy. The policies of the Democratic Party are much more popular than the policies of the Republic party.

It bugs me to no end. Especially when Democrats and liberal media repeat it.

They can't allow the adjective which can have double meaning. It implies the Democratic party is democratic, which sounds like a complement, or like we believe in democracy. Yes, that's why the name was chosen.
They also can't imagine that we can tell which meaning is meant by context, even though that worked just fine for 200 years. That is partly partly due to lack of education, besides the meanness.

Similarly Republican implies that they are republican. It's just harder to call them the Republic party, because a republic is a country. A Democrat/democrat is a valid word for a person, when used correctly. Besides, Democrats are more educated and less mean in that petty sort of way.

suggested we call them the Banana Republican party every time we refer to them. In response to people calling us the Democrat Party.

or any variation on that word.

Refer to them as the opposition. Or the other side.

If asked why.......well, the Republican party died a long time ago. What we have now is just a bunch of organized grifters.

and because the base doesn't like to think of themselves that way.

comes from the Latin "radix", meaning "root", "getting to the root of things. They simply "react", "respond", with no actual thought or plan. I do not grant them the honour of ascribing thought or intelligence to their disgusting, destructive behaviour

of radical (meaning root, no punintended). It makes one look at the word differently. And clearly, radical is not always a bad thing. It depends on the context.

magapubs.

Do it on Social Media - and watch what happens.

Evidently their philosophy being described that way enrages them.

ANP - Amerikan Nazi Party.

"republikan crime ring"

"Greedy Old Pedophile Party"

Walks like it, talks like it ... you know the rest.

He should be referred to as President Hitler.

. . . The RepubliCON Gang,

Seems appropriate

The reason Republicans enforce this kind of thing is because they can. They have billionaires who can give marching orders and the apparatchiks in the Party salute and follow orders. Democrats don't have any such thing, and when we try come up with a talking point, there's going to be 1000 people who say, "My idea is better." Biden started calling Trump "The Former Guy," but Trump still has hundreds of names made up by liberals around the country. Nobody can agree on just one, because they think the one they came up with is better.

Not a criticism per se, but an observation on the nature of the left and why we're harder to organize on stuff like this.

should always be referred to as 'child rapist T***p.' Republicans are actually the 'Death Party' or the 'Party of Death.'

or repuglic party depending on my mood.

It particularly gets to me when a Democrat does it. I've even had to correct my best friend. "Democrat party" is a slur on us. It drove my mother nuts too.

Also to every republican politician and every office they occupy. It is a fact, it is accurate, it is descriptive and illuminates their most prominent feature.

Rape public party.

Democratics?

Just something I notice when you try to match

: )

They spend an enormous amount of time fantasizing about other peoples' genitals.

to piss liberals off. None of us should ever use that term. It is not a minor point. I hardly every use "Republican Party" anymore. They are all MAGAts to me.

I refer to them as the “republic party” and as “republicans.” I don’t capitalize the “R” in “republic” or “republican” either.

They’ve been referring the Democratic Party as the “Democrat Party” for years to the point even the news media in repeating it. So if the republicans want to play that game then I’ll play my game and refer to them as the “republic party” and as “republicans.”

"I don't know anything about this 'Democrat Party,' but the DemocratIC Party says otherwise."

As for Republicans, I tend to refer to them as "Rethuglicans." It's fitting, especially now that they and Dear Leader have ramped up their thug behavior to astronomic levels.

Justa Rushbo tactical smear. Justa reminder where the racism comes from too. Medal of freedom winner my butt!

"right-wingers."

Nothin' cute or pseudo-clever, just simple truth.

It seems to bother them, especially those who insist on calling themselves "Conservatives" with a capital 'c'.

They don't know what "conservative" means. They've just dragged the term with them over 50, 60, 70 years or more, from Republicans to whom they have no political resemblance and probably wouldn't even recognize, especially those pre-Reagan. (Remember, they consider John McCain, the only actual conservative Republican I can think of in the last 40 years,a traitor.)
