who've sold out the Constitution?

How about 'Bushes' Bitches'?

'(No) Spines 57'?

(Help me please; I am not feeling particularly mature nor creative, but Jeebus, am I pissed...)

8. Maybe it's just because I'm old. In WWII it was one of the worst things you could call someone.

It was a potent and emotionally charged label. It meant in no uncertain terms that a person was actively helping the enemy against their own people.

Personally, I've been using "Vichy Dems" for 6 years now, but that no longer seems strong enough -- which is why I've switched to "collaborator": it's what you call the lowest of the low.

6. Something like 'The Traitorous 57'?
(I think they should be branded, so we won't forget around election time)

13. I call them "Democrats"
That's rapidly becoming the worst insult one can apply to someone.

15. "Out of a job" would be my preference. Defeat these bastards in the primaries.
The power of the vote is most effective at the primary stage. Use it!
