Mine is my second oldest cousin; she lives in Georgia. I am pissing myself with laughter over the recent elections there.

Here is the list of her hypocrisies:
  1. Her 30ish son has one kidney and is on Medicaid.
  2. She has two half African-American Grandchildren.
  3. She has a transgender niece.
  4. Has several other Gay or Lesbian Family Members.
  5. Had a daughter who was a nurse who was caught stealing opiates from the Hospital in which she worked. Her daughter did not spend a moment in jail, and after two years of rehab got her job back. Do you think that would have happened if she was black?
  6. I am certain her daughter paid nothing for her rehab.
  7. She claims to be an ardent Christian but has not been to a Church since our aunt passed away.
  8. She has not worked in years but soon will be eligible for some Social Security and Medicare. Keep in mind that Social Security benefits are progressive; hence, those who pay less proportionately receive a greater benefit. More egregious, she paid very, very little into Medicare but will receive full benefits.
I am sure to think of more...

Common denominators for the ones I know include:

Being on state aid for their kids (or as a kid themselves) including state funded medical care, while calling welfare and Medicare are "socialism" and claiming the people who use them are leeches and shouldn't get tax funded aid.

Claiming to care about 'family values' and marriage (that they think liberals are attacking) while being on spouse number 2 (or more).

Seems to be a common hypocrisy.

being mexican and vote GOP
I have and ex-BF who is Peruvian with relatives who vote GOP. They, like most in this country, believe in the myth that Republicans are better for the economy.

I am infuriated that Democrats don't hammer home this issue. The last three Republican Presidents left this country in recession, two of which were the worst recessions since the Great Depression. The last balanced budget was under a Democrat -- Clinton.

Let's not forget that the highest standards of living are in Blue States, and in all states the highest standard of living is in cities and suburbs, most of which are governed by Democrats. And I am not just talking about economic. Death rates, Crime Rates (AK has 2X the crime rate of NJ), Alcoholism; Drug Use, Crime Rates; Divorce Rates. The list is endless.

I think "John625" and I might be related. This cousin sounds very familiar!

I think a lot of us are. Is there something on 23andMe?

Another regarding my Deplorable. Her step mother died of Covid; she blames Andrew Cuomo for her death. AND they did not get along but my cousin is showing some sympathy.

I think I jettisoned most of my "deplorables" in President's Obama's first term.

Sure didn't need to wait for Trump to be sworn into office.

Same type of people we saw on Wednesday attack the U.S. Capitol were around then too! :(

Yes, since they lost the Civil War.

They're still fighting their racist Civil War one-hundred fifty-five years later.

Article 3 Section 3 gives one definition for treason: making war on the United States or giving aid and comfort to those who do. All those who stormed the capital should be charged with and prosecuted for treason.

My cousin who is union member voting Republican

Almost all my relatives who are Union members vote Republican. Their excuse is that Unions protect lazy workers and those who are "hard workers" don't need Unions.

Of course like all Deplorables, they take fullest advantage of Democratic-Socialest benefits, but don't want to pay for them, in this case Union dues.
