party loyalist
Unwavering political supporter
A party loyalist is someone who remains steadfastly committed to a political party, supporting its candidates and positions even when personal disagreement might arise.
The term often carries a faintly dismissive tone, suggesting someone who prioritizes party unity over independent judgment: Party loyalists defended the vote even as moderates distanced themselves.
The loyalty implied is to the organization itself rather than to any particular ideology or leader.
