supercilious

The supercilious elder sisters preened.

From Chaucer’s supercilious Madame Eglantine in “The Canterbury Tales,” with her spoiled lap dogs and secular French airs, to Ryan Murphy’s ruthless Sister Jude in 2012’s “American Horror Story: Asylum,” a woman who wears a red negligee under her habit and is not above indulging in some communion wine, fictional portrayals of nuns have long captured and confounded the imagination.

Even FOX News has called out the Republicans for their supercilious stupidity.

But I have to say it's very fitting that a supercilious centrist group like No Labels would deliver the death blow to American democracy.
