If there's one thing predictable about the Republican Party, it's "the circular firing squad". Conservatives & populists hate RINOs, because the RINOs would rather let a socialist get elected, than support a conservative. But it's hilarious how many conservatives & populists do exactly the same thing: "I'll never vote for [fill in the blank]!!!" As for Mr. Reagan's "11th Commandment"? Nobody remembers - and few remember that Mr. Reagan won 49 out of 50 States when he ran for reelection.

But don't let me interrupt you folks - keep jerkin' those triggers!

Not true. Conservatives worked hard for Bush I, Dole, Bush II, McCain, Romney and other RINOS. However, EACH AND EVERY TIME, although these RINOS all talked the talk during the campaign, they never failed to betray us after the election was over.

In other words, RINOS constantly misrepresent themselves just to procure our votes. Conservatives have taken this abuse year after year BECAUSE we recognize the alternative is even more bleak for the nation. . .it is Conservatives that have coined the phrase to "hold our nose while we vote for X."

Conservative stand for something and we don't stick our fingers in the air to see which way the wind is blowing. This is why we love Trump so much. But here's the thing, having seen how RINOS capitulated and utterly trashed Trump (and us) over January 6th. . .well, I guess it was the last proverbial straw. . . Yes, we've lost our patience and we're not voting for RINOs EVER AGAIN!

Today, we are hoping to find and promote true patriots who will run and who we can support whole-heartedly. But understand, we no longer trust the election process and are highly suspicious of how our votes are being counted (despite recent good signs that indicate we can still win). Let's pray that it is so. . because, if that hope is dashed, what course remains open to us is to either just stand aside and let the nation experience fully what the Dems will do. . .or to rise up as the Declaration of Independence authorizes us as "our right and duty to throw off such government." Sadly, if we choose the former as the only course left to a national Great Awakening. . .it should be tempered by the knowledge that once freedom is gone, it is nearly impossible to recover.

I reject your comparison of Conservatives with RINOs
