Hit the nail on the head. I am surrounded by conservatives at work. I'm friends with most. There is a huge difference between someone who leans right and the online MAGA trolls. They simply believe everything they see on Fox News.

We do have one guy who is like that, and everyone collectively rolls their eyes every time he says something. Everyone has met someone like this.. tries to say something provocative, and acts surprised when someone is offended. "Oooohhh you can't say anything anymore. It was a joke!"
