House Democrats or House Democratics?

[Libhater]

So many libs at this forum say that it is wrong to call it the Democrat Party. To them, it should be called the Democratic Party.

So should we now call it the Party of Democratics, or should we call it the Party of Democrats?

When those Democrats pass a bill in Congress, should we say that they passed a Democrat bill or a Democratics bill?



On the other side of this coin are the Republicans who rightfully call our Party the Republican Party, not the Republics Party.

What is it called legally?

In Constitutional America, which is now long gone, that is what mattered.

The real reason 'Democrat Party' is wrong is not because it's ungrammatical, but because it's incorrect in another way—the party is simply not named the Democrat Party, but the Democratic Party. Calling it anything else is discourteous.

Democrat Party (epithet) - Wikipedia

en.m.wikipedia.org

the former presidential candidate issued his latest condemnation of the “Democrat party”, endorsing a bizarre linguistic tradition among haters of the institution. As Donald Trump told a rally in 2018: “I call it the Democrat party. It sounds better rhetorically.” By “better”, of course, he meant “worse”, as he explained the next year: he prefers to say “the ‘Democrat party’ because it doesn’t sound good”.

In removing two letters from “Democratic”, the former president is adopting a jibe that’s been around since at least the 1940s. Opponents of the party long ago decided, for some reason, that this brutal act of syllabic denial would shame their opponents. Democrats don’t seem particularly devastated by the attack, but Republicans and those who love them have stuck with it. We hear it regularly from party luminaries such as JD Vance, Mike Johnson and Nikki Haley; pragmatic independents like RFK Jr; and media voices across the vast spectrum from Fox News to Infowars. Last week, even Tulsi Gabbard, once a Democratic presidential candidate herself, wrote an op-ed proudly describing her departure from the Democrat party and support for Trump.

The strangest insult in US politics: why do Republicans call it ‘the Democrat party’?

For almost a century, opponents have removed the ‘ic’ from ‘Democratic’. Is it doing them any good?

The party traces its roots to 1792 and the anti-federalist faction led by Thomas Jefferson. The Jeffersonians called themselves “Republicans” at first, and later “Democratic-Republican.” The party splintered in the late 1820s, and the faction led by Andrew Jackson in his successful presidential campaign of 1828 became the modern Democratic Party. It formally adopted the name “Democratic Party” at its convention in 1844.

Because it's grammatically incorrect.

You're not in first grade.

House Democrats are members of the Democratic Party. You are looking for sleezy reason to keep being sleezy.

We don't give a shit what trumptards call us. We call you trumptards because all you are is the cult of one very broken human.

I don't plan to stop, so keep up with the "democrat" label if that's what moistens your vag.
