ONLINE ETYMOLOGY DICTIONARY

demagogic (adj.)

1831; see demagogue + -ic. Cf. Gk. demagogikos "fit for or like a demagogue."

demagogue (n.)

1640s, from Gk. demagogos "popular leader," also "leader of the mob," from demos "people" (see demotic) + agogos "leader," from agein "to lead" (see act (n.)). Often a term of disparagement since the time of its first use, in Athens, 5c. B.C.E. Form perhaps influenced by Fr. demagogue (mid-14c.).

-ic

adjective suffix, "having to do with, having the nature of, being, made of, caused by, similar to" (in chemistry, indicating a higher valence than names in -ous), from French -ique and directly from Latin -icus, which in many cases represents Greek -ikos "in the manner of; pertaining to." From PIE *-(i)ko, which also yielded Slavic -isku, adjectival suffix indicating origin, the source of the -sky (Russian -skii) in many surnames.
