The evolution of the Republican mindset has been fascinating to watch. A lot of them just followed the party line as always, of course. And then there's the Trump cult of personality people who are forever lost.

There's two other groups not often talked about though.The first is the silent Republican. I think a decent number of Republicans are flat-out embarrassed to be Republicans right now and so avoid politics as much as possible. The second group I like to call the double-downers. On some level, they realized that they got conned and contributed to this mess. They're ashamed. But instead of being silent, they double down on their support to try and convince themselves that what they did was right. This group, I think, is the loudest and most vehement of them all. Partially because they're yelling at themselves as much as others, but also because cognitive dissonance is very stressful.
