Title: What's worse than a RINO?
Post by: K Frame on November 20, 2020, 09:57:29 AM
A blue state RINO...

Never been particularly impressed with Larry Hogan. He's not a conservative... he's not really a Republican, either, at least not my definition of a Republican.

Another Romney, in other words.

I remember years ago hearing a former R congressman from Cali.  He lost reelection under some strange circumstances.  In an interview years later he regretted not challenging the results to the bitter end.  Even if Trump ultimately loses, I think it is a good thing for him to push this as far as he can.

Bob Dornan?  He lost to former Republican-turned-Democrat Loretta Sanchez by 979 votes.  He claimed that Sanchez's winning margin was provided by illegal voting from non-citizens.

That is him.  Does no good to make claims if you give up on the enforcement.

I kind of remember they did a survey and found out well over 1000 illegal aliens actually cast ballots in that election, but since he couldn't prove the illegals actually voted for his opponent, the results were allowed to stand.

Or at least I remember a story alleging that at the time . . . can't swear to the actual court decision.

RINO's are lacking loyalty.

They are not loyal to the country.

They are not loyal to any principles.

They are not loyal to each other, as leftists they will cannibalize each other to survive.

Rino = controlled opposition
