Three-quarters of the Republicans in the House voted to impeach.
MAGA’s (and Trump) are not happy and are accusing them of being RINO’s.
Does RINO even mean anything consistent anymore?

It is crazy; all these people yelling ‘RINO’ couldn’t name a single person in the Texas legislature, and would agree with their voting records 100%.

But based on a vote to impeach a corrupt public official they are suddenly all RINO.

Think of it: according to these people, you must be willing to overlook corruption, and failure to do so means that you aren’t a real Republican. To wit: real Republicans support corruption.

Now I’m more confident.

“Pursuant to Texas law, Paxton will be temporarily removed from office pending the outcome of a state senate trial. Assuming all 12 of the Democrats vote to convict, nine of the body’s 19 Republicans would need to join them in order to oust Paxton for good. One of the 19 is actually Paxton’s wife, Angela Paxton. And among the charges she will have to consider is that her husband allegedly helped arranged to get his mistress a job with the aforementioned donor.“

This is hilarious, right? RINO! I mean, WINO if she votes to impeach.
