Terms need to be defined. Mainly for MAGA folk.
Terms like RINO are well understood by those knowledgeable and familiar with US politics. RoadGator seems to be neither.
And "MAGA" folk? Why even bother to introduce that into the equation? The term RINO predates the current MAGA movement by decades. A RINO is one who talks a big conservative game, like border control, or 'repeal and replace' but then does nothing to make those issues come to fruition.
There are some here who have followed and been aware of politics since well before Trump. Before W, Clinton, Bush41, Reagan and beyond.
But sure, it's all "MAGA" to you, I guess.

Because Trump and his base called the most conservative Governor a RINO. They did it over and over again.
Get your head out of your arse.

But the popular connotation changes and changed for MAGA-identifiers when MAGA became popular.
Just like how you see people referencing the "WEF" as some symbol of RINO-ism, when these people had never heard of the WEF until probably 2020 or so (when it was spoonfed to them by echo chamber content creators). So linking "RINO" to the "WEF" is incredibly hilarious, considering the MAGA version of RINO predates "WEF" in the Patriot Zeitgeist by years.
