‘Democrat’ party, not ‘Democratic’ party.
‘Democrat’ politician, not ‘Democratic’ politician.
‘Democrat’ policy, not ‘Democratic’ policy.
‘Democrat’ voter, not ‘Democratic’ voter.

‘Democratic’ is an adjective - a descriptor..

*********

The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language, 5th Edition

democratic
/dĕm″ə-krăt′ĭk/

adjective
Of, characterized by, or advocating democracy.
“democratic government; a democratic union.”
Of or for the people in general; popular.
“a democratic movement; democratic art forms.”
Believing in or practicing social equality.

********

Clearly, none of those adjectival definitions describe the Democrat party, anyone in it, or anything about it.

Reagan knew this, Trump knows this, Rush knew this.. they always painstakingly use/used ‘Democrat’, not ‘democratic’, when referring to the Democrat party, its members or its policies.

The official name is “democRATic party” (emphasis mine). If you want to call them what they actually are, call them communists instead of their clear “disinformation name” of democRATic party(emphasis mine).

I have gotten tired of repeating this.

Thanks for saying it for me.

(I don't use the word "capitalism", either)
It's a commie word.

I don't use commie words.
