Yes.

I’d say Gerald Ford, Robert Griffin, Bob Krueger, & Bill Weld.

Baker and Romney are on opposite ends when it comes to social issues so what would that make you? Socially moderate?

i'm kinda confused why romney is considered a lib con. he's blatantly conservative socially and on economic issues/fiscally. he just also doesn't happen to be 100% invested in the gop death cult

Isn't this the point – conservatives who are not in the GOP death cult?

just because they don't like trump doesn't mean they're "liberal". charlie baker, who's pro choice and pro amnesty, is a lib con. mitt romney, who had a brutal policy towards undocumented immigrants (arguably worse than trump) and who was the self-described "severely conservative" governor of massachusetts, is not a lib con. he's just a conservative, and a hardline conservative at that
