“Country club Republicans” was once the description of choice for those conservatives more concerned with their own pedigree and status than implementing policies that benefit the people. RINOs, “Republicans in name only,” is now more common but a new term from Paul du Quenoy at American Greatness is far more accurate.
“Vichycons” – Vichy conservatives – applies to those soi-disant conservatives comfortable with conditions under the Biden Junta, what Angelo Codevilla calls an oligarchy – after serious election irregularities that Conrad Black helpfully outlines. The Vichy reference goes back to the 1940s and the 1942 film Casablanca dramatizes the parallels.
Paris has fallen to the German National Socialist invaders, and their puppet Gen. Pétain governs from Vichy. From Nazi-occupied countries across Europe, people flee to French-controlled Morocco, where a measure of liberty still prevails. Still, the gendarmes demand to see papers, criminals lurk on every hand, and life is cheap. That may sound familiar to Americans in 2021, but there’s more to it.

Plenty of Vichy Republicans… Sadly
Ass Rats, short for “Assistant Democrats”, works for me.
It’s not just that. You don’t see the fight in them when todays environment calls for it. It Linda is good for 6 more years. Lisa can be nipped in the bud after 18 years. As for Liz vote a democrat in for 2 years if you have to.
I wish a real conservative would primary him.
That’s up to the State GOP not blocking or helping a potential candidate and the RNC/NRSC not getting in the way.
State GOP apparatus plays a huge role in who can run.
And who runs the state GOPs? Country Club/Vichy/Frat Boy/UNIPARTY/GOPe Republicans.
I really like the analogy. The French, through apathy, corruption, stupidity and outright treason pissed away the Third Republic in a very similar fashion to the way we pissed our republic away. Now it’s either Vichy America or the American Soviet.
Conservatism is dead.
Time for something new.
“ Now it’s either Vichy America or the American Soviet”
Third position.
“ Now it’s either Vichy America or the American Soviet”
Third position.
Agree. It’s hard to conserve a thing that has already warped beyond repair, although it may still retain its outward, historic form or name.
We have a LOT of House and Senate cleaning to do.
Flimsey Grahamnesty, Micro Rubio, Hoeven, Tillis, Cornyn, Lankford, Inhofe, Scott, Scott, Romney, McConnell, Cassidy, Thune, Ernst, Boozman, Murkowsky, Wicker, Hyde-Smith, Shelby, Blunt, Sasse, Toomey, Rounds, Portman, Burr, Lee, Capito, Crapo, Cramer, Barrasso, Risch, Sullivan, Moran and Collins are ALL Bush League Republicans
And that’s just the Senate, there are 145 House members that voted for Liz Cheney in Feb. to lead them (away from MAGA)

These scumbags will do everything in their power to see that Trump will never again set foot in the White House. That was obvious from the get-go which is why he should have given the GOP the finger after 1/6 and created a true second party for his 75+ million constituents.
If you think about it we really don’t have much of a choice when it comes to voting. The communist Democrats or their whorish lovers the Vichy Republicans.
Unless there is a real conservative running the GOP candidates are essentially 1990’s Democrat leftist and I wouldn’t turn over in bed for the effort of voting for these scumbags.
Right now all we hear from the GOP is vote for us we are not Democrats. Not officially you are not, but from your voting records you most certainly are Democrat Vichy whores.
“Right now all we hear from the GOP is vote for us we are not Democrats.”
They can’t even use the “vote for us so we can get conservative judges on the courts” anymore, since we have seen that the judges they are appointing are all traitors to the Republic as well.
In the end, the bulk of Freepers will consider their duty done when they vote.
The problem is that political parties have proved they exist for their own ambition and avarice.
It is long past time to get down to grass-roots fundamentals and support the Article V Convention of States movement.
