Quit calling Democrats democratic! They are anything but.

Also, quit calling the United States of America a democracy. It is a republic!

One of my pet peeves. Ronald Reagan always called it the Democrat party, Democrat policies, Democrat congressman - and so did my parents. President Trump does it too - “democratic” sounds so wrong to me unless someone is actually referring to the democratic process.

My wife will tell you I’m constantly correcting the TV whenever someone says ‘democratic’: “Democrat!!!!!”
