Well there’s at least a few RINOs fooling people in conservative states :)
But you’re right.
I worked in Manhattan and I was a “moderate” on interviews and first starting out at a place.
I became conservative when it was safe enough to be as I had some time at the job :)

Having said that, McConnell had already gotten his way on not pushing a second stimulus bill through before the election. It had cost Trump the election. He could have given way and provided Trump the $2K consolation prize he could point to, if he ran again for the White House in 2024. Instead, he chose to give Trump the stiff arm, thereby losing the Senate majority.
For that, the man deserves to be tarred, feathered and run out of town on a rail, not simply stripped of his leadership posts. He single-handedly ensured that Trump lost the White House and the GOP lost the Senate run-offs, thereby paving the way for much bigger trillion dollar deficits. When the bill for the pandemic is added up, McConnell will be fingered as the GOP figure responsible a great deal of its excesses thanks to his key role in engineering two sets of GOP defeats.
