The inimitable David Horowitz takes on those he calls the "Never-Trump Pouters." I couldn't have said it better. I've been describing the behavior of these pouters as "moral preening," for its purpose is to signal virtue, in this case the virtue of being a "true" or "pure" conservative. The animal best known for preening is the peacock, so I hereby denominate the moral preeners "Peacocks." Let's see whether the term catches on.
