For instance, I have an aunt who is definitely MAGA, and is flirting with Q-Anon ideas. However, she has pretty good views on the environment and animal rights. For instance, after travelling to Ecuador, she donates to some Ecuadorian land trust run by locals. However, if you start talking to her about the border or gender, she goes full Orbán.

She must be a fan of ron Swanson

she doesn’t watch television. It’s extremely odd because for a libertarian she makes extensive use of the library system and supports NPR.

Not very politically coherent, but I guess that’s par for the course given her penchant for casting spells in her free time.
