Democrat is not an adjective.
- cardiffspaceman 6y agoIt's a common usage, but mainly among non-Democrats. And it's not a compliment. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democrat_Party_(epithet) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democrat_Party_(epithet)
- ComputerGuru 6y agoYou’re barking up the wrong tree. I wrote “democratic,” thought it looked wrong as it seemed more the adjective of “Democracy” rather than “member of the Democratic Party,” didn’t want to look it up on my phone because I cannot multitask for the life of me on my iPhone, and there you go. Anyway, you do realize that the very fact that I was linking to "here's what someone in a position to challenge or at least refuse to enforce this inanity" implies that I'm scarcely trying to side with the party backing the trigger-happy president, right?
- runeb 6y agoYou felt the need to refer to someone as a proponent of democracy?
- ComputerGuru 6y agoOther way around, obviously.
- ComputerGuru 6y agoOk. Thanks for the correction, I explained below. I think you knew what I meant, though.
- failuser 6y agoI thought you can use any noun as an adjective in English.
