I always love when a politician changes their stance on something after receiving new evidence and they get railroaded for it. Like, that's exactly what we want to happen.
"flip-flopper" is the term I remember. As though learning things and changing your views is a bad thing.
Well there are some politicians deserving of that title. People who change their stance on issues for no reason other than to curry favor with either their party or some other interests. Look at someone like Mitch McConnell. He will change his stances at the drop of a hat if it means he has more power as a result.
The current GOP frontrunner has changed his political affiliation 5 times. Text book example of what you're saying: changing positions for power, nothing else.
