This. Everybody knows they’re all crooks and liars so why change the name now?

The problem is that literally every single politician you can think of does that.

So, a politician then?
edit; since I got beat:
turncoat, flipflop (or any variety of person or business who makes pancakes), empty suit, co-conspirator.

I have a vague memory of a German(?) word that means something like 'a face in need of a fist'. I think the general formula works, but something with 'scoundrel' and 'rope' might be a little more precise.

The word you're looking for is "Backpfeifengesicht" Literal translation is pipe cheek face, or something like that. My german is pretty terrible. But it translates to a face in need of punching.

Conservatives don't Conserve anything. In the Western world and their vassal states.

That's the very definition of a random politician.

The people needed to get elected aren't necessarily the people needed to get re-elected.

well part of the problem is the voters. they demand mutually exclusive goals and act like petulant children. people have been convinced we do not live in a real nation, but just a international plot of land open to everyone with no common culture.

You just described politicians in general. Politicians lie about everything. From what they're going to do, to why they're doing what they're either going to do or are already doing. A name for a politician that isn't a two timing snake would be more useful, since those are vanishingly rare.
