Yeah, I know that trick too.
Yes, the term “progressive conservatism” is in fairly common use. I hadn’t encountered it much, seeing RINO as the more common term here. (Or GOPe, which returned over 2.17 million results, or about 28 times more common, but still it’s out there, I will concede.)

They are all pretty useless. Very few stand outside things. I appreciate Nunes for at least trying to get to the truth. He’s already announced he’s leaving Congress at the end of his term. It must be incredibly frustrating if you are there to do good, to be surrounded by these hustlers and grifters masquerading as patriots.
