Are all Republicans Trumplicans in your eyes? Do you know how many people didn't vote for him in the primary? A lot.

Not I
Nor a large number of people I know
But Trumplicans continue to support him

They say he's a good guy? Or that he's a good president?
I would never, ever have voted for him in the primary - never. But I voted for him in the general. I think he's a disgusting human being, who is doing a good job as president. Does that make me a Trumplican? I said the same exact thing about Bill Clinton. Does that make me a diehard liberal, as well as a Trumplican?

Jim, I think by "Trumplican" Pete means someone who supports Trump. So, if you support Trump, even just as a good President, you're what he calls a Trumplican.
If he means something other than that, something sarcastic and belittling, that would be trespassing his own distaste for name calling. You know . . . like being a hypocrite.

Detbuch is correct
Time will tell if it is sarcastic and belittling

As I said, I also think Bill Clinton was disgusting, who nonetheless did some good things with policy. So is there a derogatory name you assign to people who judge democratic presidents by the job they do rather than their personal behavior? Or is it acceptable to give democrats that benefit, and only a problem when we apply it to Republicans?

If you intended it to be sarcastic and belittling, time will not change your intention.
