UNIPARTY.
UNIPARTY.
I believe the “e” is for establishment but am uncertain of origin. Also called RINOs, deep state, elites, turncoats, assistant democrats, traitors, back-stabbing, lying, swamp things, crooks, thieves, scumbags, Marxists, republicrats, globalists, democrat lite, uniparty types and the list is endless...
Here is an analogy...
Lots of people when asked if they would like to go to vacation in Hawaii, would say “Yes”. However, they don’t know which airlines fly there. They don’t know the names of any of the hotels. They haven’t started saving money for the trip.
Many people who would answer “Yes” to that question have started a savings account and have started looking at flights, picking out hotels and finding excursions to take.
Other people have actually been to Hawaii on vacation there and are making plans to go back.
Out of these three groups, you can say that one group is definitely “Hawaii vacationers”. Another group will likely be “Hawaii Vacationers” and the last group are “Hawaii Vacationers in Name Only”.
There are some Republicans who have actually done things to accomplish the goals of the Republican platform.
There are some Republicans who have said the right things and started to do some of the right things. Maybe they even spent a little political capital to accomplish goals of the Republican platform.
There are other Republicans who do nothing but talk. They don’t expend any political capital. They don’t take hard stands. They don’t hold other Republicans accountable. They don’t move the Overton window to the right. These are Republicans in name only.
GOP Establishment.
Think of Congress as mainland Europe during the German occupation.
The Democrats are the equivalent of the Axis coalition; the Republicans represent France.
The RINO’s are the Vichy party and the MAGA’s are the French Underground.
This guy, Mike Miller, is an idiot, IMO.
Almost all Republicans support democracy, not republicanism. Many don't even know our form of government as a Constitutional Republic and when they do get it right it's an afterthought or by design.
There's your RINO's.
It’s pretty easy.
A RINO says something in a re-election TV ad like “I’ll repeal Obamacare if re-elected”.
When the vote comes up to repeal ObamaCare, he votes to keep it going.
That’s a RINO. The DC jungle is full of them.
