In the same context I’m gay.

Well, we can hope!
The GOP arose during a time of high dissatisfaction. Looking around these days, it’s comparable, eh? I would say that if there ever was a time for a third party, it is now, but the window of opportunity will not stay open for ever. It is probably more realistic to gut the GOP and replace it from within - no name-change required. Either way is fine with me.
But, I’m probably in the minority on that.
That sounds like CWAP (Conservative Without A Party).
I'm a LINO!
I’m pro-choice, isn’t everyone?!
Interesting take. But it will cause too much confusion!
The original usage of RINO was to identify and label elected Republicans who behaved like and voted with the Democrats.And that's all it means now, although there are RINOs by this definition who claim to speak authoritatively about who is and isn't a RINO. They tend to be RINOs, CINOs, and/or LINOs themselves, but basically they're just trolls.
