MODERATORS
My ex is the most infuriating type of cognitive dissonance I've ever experienced. She's quite liberal, but she voted for Trump in 2016 (we were divorced by election day) because she thought he was "fun."
More frustrations ensued. She'd tell the boys (6 and 7 when we met) about how often she skipped school. I was livid. And she's shocked -- SHOCKED -- that one of them dropped out of high school years later.
Atop all this, she was very clear in her praise for them coming up with her ideas. So proud that she'd raised them not to think on their own.
It's not just conservatives.
