President Trump has said he prefers the term "Democrat party" to Democratic Party, its official name, and used it in his State of the Union address. But where did the term come from? Also, Paul Rieckhoff came home from the Iraq War and started Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans Of America, which has become the largest organization for veterans of those wars. We speak with Rieckhoff, who's set to step down as IAVA's leader later this month, and fellow veteran Jeremy Butler, who will replace him. That and more, in hour two of Here & Now's Feb. 7, 2019 full broadcast. You can read and hear more at hereandnow.org, follow us on Twitter and join the conversation on Facebook.
