Republic Party (actually Anti-Republic Party)

I am sick and tired of hearing daily on TV and on the radio in interviews the Democratic Party being referred to by these Trump sycophants and GOP talking heads as the "Democrat" Party and not the Democratic Party.

What makes me even angrier, is I NEVER hear anybody correct them. Was just watching MSNBC and some asswipe Trump jumper named David Rivlin (sp?) was going on and on about the memo showing how the "Democrat Party" hired Steele and was allowed to have illegal faulty basis for the FISA warrant(s) (all of them on Carter Page).

The MSNBC host should have corrected him (actually on more than just the "Democrat Party" statement). Every single one of the hosts and anchors need to start correcting them. Everytime. And meanwhile I think everyone should always refer to the GOP as the REPUBLIC PARTY (more like anti-Republic party).

But then if people insist on correcting people saying "REPUBLIC PARTY", point out and ask then why are the White House and GOP Representatives calling the Democratic Party the "Democrat Party" not being corrected?
