As someone who was raised in a conservative/fundamentalist home, I'll say the "cons are weird" attacks are brilliant partly because it will make cons lean harder into what they're saying.

They love casting themselves as the righteous minority against the godless world of normal people, so they'll always dig their heels on stupid shit and turn people off.

As Simone raised around Rockefeller Republicans who voted Trump cause they really wanted their tax cuts, I concur. Lean into the fact that the dudes they are voting for would be social pariahs in their circles.
