“Moderate Republican” translates as “Republican in Name Only”, and an almost certain negative voice on President Trump.

Because Trump is so unconventional, they feel a “wrongness” in his approach to problems and stand aghast at his sometimes sudden shortcuts to untangle the Gordian knots of current political conundrums. Like Alexander the Great, a simple slash of the sword is enough to solve some very complicated-looking problems, and the carnage is not nearly as bad as never making the attempt.
