Q for @HeerJeet and others: What's the earliest reference you know of a prominent national Republican calling the GOP "the Stupid Party"?
@jledbetter I'm pretty sure that was used under Eisenhower, maybe by William F. Buckley or someone else at National Review.

@HeerJeet Fascinating, would appreciate cites. I got one from William Simon's 1978 memoir. -
@jledbetter Will try to dig up. Buckley was quoting John Stuart Mill, who called Tories "the Stupid Party." Buckley applied to Eisenhower. - Show replies
