We have been TRYING for 50+ years to rid ourselves of these RINOS!! It is impossible unless of course they are in a casket and I am not kidding!!
Political success produces RINOS. In general, once a professional politician gets to 10 years in office no matter how sound they are in conservative principles they start to forget who their constituents were - the people who originally brought them “to the dance”. The people who are in their office\face all the time the lobbyists, “special interest spokespeople”, fund raisers, etc. become their constituents. Many don’t even realize it’s happening, many arrive already aware of it, many just give in to it; besides it will likely make them rich so why not accept it. Politics as a career is an ‘unstable’ game they have families (sometimes ‘extended’ like the Bidens!) who need to be clothed, sheltered and fed. After 10 years it’s time to exploit the opportunity! The ‘system’ as a consequence produces RINOs. So I say after 10 years or so time to send them home!
This is why term limits are necessary. It doesn’t eliminate the corruption as long as you deal with humans you will have it. It simply disrupts it and makes it more complex and expensive for the corrupter.
Repel the 17th Amendment!
The state legislatures can’t do worse!
