I don't think we should negotiate with Republicans until they can say "the Democratic Party"

[Walleye]

This is going on for too long and it’s getting stupid. From Miriam Webster:
“Using "Democrat" as an adjective (e.g., "Democrat votes&quot is considered grammatically incorrect by many sources and is often used as a deliberate political slur.”
Why would we even discuss anything when they won’t even talk to us without an insult, getting somebody’s name right is minimum respect.

[johnnyfins]

1. Why can we just start calling them the MAGA

Party? That is what they are.

[Walleye]

2. Agree, there are only two parties now, Maga, and everybody else

[Irish_Dem]

3. Let's start calling them by their real name: Maggats.

[BlueKota]

7. I agree.

[otchmoson]

16. In my daily e-mail/calls to my RW representatives,

I address them as Senators/Congressman Pedo Protector, and in the text of the message I always refer to their party as the Guardians of Pedophiles (GOP). I know they don't read the messages, but it sure makkes me feel good to vent to them/their staff.

[Trueblue1968]

18. Call them ..... The Repulic Party. Just use nouns for everthing.

[no_hypocrisy]

4. Yes

[Iwasthere]

5. That has always bothered me too. It's the Democratic party

[William Seger]

26. That's the whole point of doing it (nt)

[usonian]

6. GOP Guardians of Pedophiles

[czarjak]

8. Limbaugh Lives

Rushbo meant 4-It-2B

[Walleye]

9. I can only think that they actually hate democracy

[Beartracks]

12. They certainly have no use for it. Democracy just gets in their way. n/t

[William Seger]

31. They sure love it when they think winning an election is the key to the kingdom (nt)

[Qutzupalotl]

10. Proud Democratic here.

Yes, I can use bad grammar too, just to rub their noses in it.

Everywhere Democrat is used, even correctly — change it to Democratic.

[mzmolly]

11. RepublICKs

will never be decent.

[William Seger]

33. I like that, or how about Republickers?

[mzmolly]

40. Good one!

[malaise]

13. THIS

No more -the great Mohammad Ali could teach them lessons

[Walleye]

17. Yes, I had him in the back of my mind.

I learned when I worked for a newspaper, that you better get their name and spell it right. it’s a modicum of respect. And it doesn’t cost anything. The maga trick of deliberately mispronouncing someone’s name, is usually racist or bigoted and very irritating. My only conclusion is that they want to be irritating people

[William Seger]

37. Did you catch SNL's #rump saying, "... Usha Vance, and I hope I'm mispronouncing that."

[Walleye]

38. Yes, that was beautiful and funny as hell

[KS Toronado]

14. Every time they mention any one of us they always add the adjective "RADICAL"

in front of our names.

[Gum Logger]

15. People vote for a chaos monkey. This must be what they wanted

[Envirogal]

19. It pisses me off when this goes unchallenged

Every time they try this crap, we need to start calling them repugnantcons because everything they do and stand for is repugnant.

[rubbersole]

20. And next November they can beg for mercy and forgiveness.

They won't, but the karma fairy has been proven to be quite the bitch when she's ignored and disrespected.

[TheRickles]

21. The Republicist Party, the Republic Party, the Republician Party, the Republicons, etc.

Plenty of good options out there.

[gulliver]

22. It used to drive me crazy

It doesn't anymore. They know they're being jerks. We know they're being jerks. We just need to keep our heads, win elections, and enact our policies.

They're trying to bait us.

Our best bet is not to let them and to just proudly say the words "Democratic Party" constantly. I actually don't hear it enough from our side. It's a major oversight. The popularity of our policies is growing, and we need to carry our name with it.

[Walleye]

24. Yes, I have said, I'm glad I don't belong to this "Democrat party", It sounds terrible. I am a proud member

Of the Democratic Party, when I go in the voting booth, there’s no “Democrat party” on the ballot

[RedWhiteBlueIsRacist]

23. It's juvenile, and makes Republicans look ignorant. It makes the media look even more ignorant

for not correcting them. WTF

[Walleye]

28. Yes, it really makes them sound ignorant. But now sounding ignorant is cool with these people.

It’s like some kind of disease has spread. They say “Democrat party”,next thing you know they can’t make a complete English sentence.

[RainCaster]

25. "The Election Was Not Stolen"

They must all stop telling the TSF lies, starting with this one.

[Walleye]

29. Yes, they get away with a corrupting the name of our party for all these years Now they have to make the lies fit

[spanone]

27. It'll never happen, they don't support our democracy.

[Walleye]

32. You put your finger on it right there. They hate democracy.

Look at the way they are treating the democratically, elected mayor of New York. And the way they treated our congresswoman, Sarah McBride, elected by the whole state of Delaware. Nancy Mace and her cohorts treated our congresswoman like shit. Just because she is a transgender person. They don’t bother to get to know her. Which to me means they treat the whole state that way.

[spanone]

35. And the representative who has not been seated, Adelita Grijalva

[Walleye]

36. Absolutely. What a bunch of shit.

[iemanja]

30. So people should go hungry and without medical insurance because you don't like Republicans misuse of grammar?

That will win hearts and minds. Way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

[Walleye]

34. It just shows, there's no point in making a bargain with them when they go right back on their word and lie.

[iemanja]

39. They get an agreement in writing, obviously

I understand you want the government to stay permanently closed, but that helps no one. Perhaps you should think about how fortunate you are not to need government services.

[Bluetus]

41. While the suggestion is a bit frivilous, I am in favor of F-ing with the GOP while they are in chaos

Try as they might, they have not been able to blame us for their shutdown. They have not been able to justify staving children and taking away needed health care.

And the Epstein thing is still out there. Some reports are saying that up to 100 House Republicans are now ready to sign on to the discharge petition to get the Epstein files released to the public.

And the House Republicans are still AWOL.

it is time to put some new demands on the table. For one, we should demand that every last Inspector General be reinstated with guaranteed independence from Trump. We should demand that the House pas a resolution saying that they have not delegated their responsibility for all taxation including tariffs, and that there is no exigent emergence that would enable a President to implement any tariffs.

And just to F with them, also refuse to negotiate until they refer to us by the correct name. "Say My Name!"

[yellow dahlia]

42. Good call. Agreed.
