Someone who will say anything to avoid rocking the boat. They will go against their own morals and standards to make statements to
please others. They shouldn't be trusted and confiding in them isn't a good idea. They are liked by many due to the fact they always have good things to say, but are not trusted by the
smart ones who have figured them out. Fence riders are phony
butt kissers. We all know a few, most are politicians.
Wow!..You

OMG!..Doesn't she look awful in that dress!
It's not a matter of them not being able to make up their
mind, fence riders say what's needed/wanted to be heard.
