Mine didn't think about it much, just voted Democrat because his colleagues and friends did. I'd say he's a centrist and dislikes the extremists on both sides ... and he listens to NPR but also Fox and "The Five".

After years with me he started coming into my office (we work from home) and saying, "I see what you're saying now. This is how they portrayed this issue." He began "hearing" the slant, their angle, omitting stories. You know all their tricks. Same with cable.

He sees it now. Voted for the Donald AND got me a Trump mug for Christmas. :)

Your anecdote reinforces my strong belief on why a man should never date, let alone marry, a liberal woman. However, it may work if a conservative woman dates or marries a liberal man.

You are much more likely to break through and reach a liberal man through reason and logic, assuming he isn’t a wide-eyed radical, than reaching a liberal woman who invests her entire emotional soul into liberalism and tends to emotionally rage against any perceived intrusion into her emotional firewall.
