"“Republican In Name Only,” has been made popular by former President Donald Trump, who evokes it to attack members of his own party who are critical of him."
Huh? RINO has been around for at least two decades. Fox17 should have this Aaron character arrested for loitering.

I have a slightly different point to address. The author and editors are using this 'Rino' designator as a way to slam our President Trump personally.
They know full well that the term Rino is used by conservatives to define the liberal, Benidict Arnold types within the Republican Party. But the media slimes are trying to say that President Trump is using it only against those who don't like him. When in reality he is using it to distinguish true conservatives from the anti- conservatives within the Republican Party.
President Trump is using the term consistently, and in exactly the same way, as his fellow Republicans do; not as some attack against him personally. It's just another intentional smear tactic used by the left, which includes the Rino's from within.
