THANK YOU JEN PSAKI

for retiring the pejorative "Democrat," used as an adjective, started in use (I just researched) by JOSEPH McCARTHY himself in the 1950s and later refined by Frank Luntz.

The correct adjective is DemocratIC. It does NOT rhyme with rat...

fuckers. Yeah, that's right, rat fuckers.

I'm done with them...!

IIRC. She just flat said she wouldn't be discussing her, essentially - in the White House!

Her disgust was only partially disguised ... and well-founded.

I believe Psaki's response was "I think we (or I) won't be discussing her ..."
