We hear much about RINOs (Republicans In Name Only) but NEVER a word about DINOs (Democrats In Name Only) or LINOs (Liberals). Why is that?
Is it because no such thing exists? If so, why is that? Does it point to an inherent hypocrisy?

I think it’s because under Trump’s leadership the Republican Party has focused on division and creating an “us vs them” environment rather then the “we’re all in this together” idea. He’s played on the grievances people feel and made insults and name-calling and even violent rhetoric more acceptable.
So with that direction, it’s only a matter of time where that divisiveness and lack of compromise and empathy would cause Republicans to turn against each other - increasing the use of RINO as an insult. It’s used to reject anyone who doesn’t agree with someone’s opinions and bias.
I don’t think it’s hypocrisy just the natural result of the constant complaining and blame game that Trump and his supporters have chosen. It’s all about excluding and bullying others.

It's because the wannabe Nazi party of Dump requires goose-stepping. Absolutely NO difference of opinion is tolerated.

Yeah, nobody ever accused Joe Biden of being too centrist and too cosy with Wall Street.

If you don't know what a word means, you shouldn't use it. It makes you look stupid, not smart.

They're called blue dog dems. Less because dems are more united.
I'm not familiar w/ your submission (LINO DINO). I think you made that up and why we don't hear it.
