Let's try another. RINO, of course, means Republican in Name Only. Now, many who use RINO misapply it as well. If the person using RINO is using it to label another person as being part of the Republican Party or the Republican Party establishment, they're misapplying. That is an actual Republican. A RINO is someone who is too liberal to be a Republican. In other words, you don't use RINO to attack the GOP or someone who is a Republican per se. I hope this helps.
