Eh. This describes my Dad, I guess. Life time "fiscal conservative" that voted Republican his entire life except 2016 and on. Possibly 2008 too, he was outraged at Palin and the Tea Party.
They exist.
But he was never a republican for the social conservatism side of things. Never watched Fox News or Rush Limbaugh or any of that garbage. And votes blue down ticket too because he accepts that the entire party is corrupted now.
This is exactly why I can respect older, actual, conservatives and not the hate/fear driven fox viewers like my own father...
The older conservatives generally came to their conclusions in some ways "on their own" while current magas are just being emotionally manipulated and propagandized like crazy...
Obligatory: I FUCKING HATE PROPAGANDISTS!
