So, I wish I could take full responsibility for this, but alas, I cannot. Unfortunately, I don't remember where I first read it, but I wouldn't be surprised to know that the ferret was involved somewhere along the line.
In these surreal times of long discussions about where racists are allowed to eat dinner while the Big Cheetoh throws nine-month-olds in cages and then goes out to play golf, all using our tax money, I think it is important to come up with the right words to describe those who cheer him on. And that word is...
MAGAts.
No, it's not my creation, and no, I don't know who DID create it. Hell, it's not even new, but that surprises me all the more because I don't see it used nearly enough.
But I find it so perfectly descriptive that I would just like to propose (to those of us who read DU at 2am...4 eastern) that it be made the new official name for the Republican party. They are clearly struggling to find an identity right now, and this one word contains both their self-proclaimed brand as well as their function in life (to eat shit, and then morph into annoying insects who go around tormenting people).
Just a thought. Good night.

I didn't "think of it" until I saw it in someone else's post a few months ago. (Though I remember kicking myself a little for not coming up with it. It is a little obvious.)
I just thought, with all of the current talk of "civility" this would be a good time to do some petty name calling.
