That’s a valid point. I wonder though if there’s a shade of difference. “The GOP” has been a nickname of the Republican party for generations. I speculate that most people, even Republicans, don’t know that it means “Grand Old Party.” I confess this may be hair-splitting. A good thing about the term “The GOP” is that it invited being turned into “The GQP.” I’d like to see that moniker gain wider circulation.
