Why We Don’t Like The Democratic Party
I & I Editorial Board
October 22, 2025
In response to last week’s editorial “None Dare Call It A Republic,” one reader said I&I prefers “the term republic over democracy because” we “like the Republican Party” and “don’t like the Democratic Party.” Therefore we refuse to use the word “Democratic” because it “sounds just like the word ‘democratic.’” We can’t say we like the Republican Party, but we can say we despise the Democratic Party. Read on and we’ll tell you why.
First, though, take a look at the reader’s full comment, found here. He calls us ignorant, which is fine – he’s entitled to his opinion. But his statement reminds us quite a bit of the gibberish yakked up by Joe Biden in last year’s presidential debate, which was so incoherent that in one instance Donald Trump said “I really don’t know what he said at the end of that sentence. I don’t think he knows what he said either.”
But we understand enough of what our dedicated reader said to feel that it would be helpful to explain why we don’t like the Democratic Party, and not just so readers will understand but also to make it clear just how dissolute that party is.
We could start with its lust for big government and all that comes with it: steep taxes, cruel regulation, appalling violations of property rights and an imperious and ever-hungry administrative state.
