Same vein as the Catholic thread, although here he's protestant and conservative. 

I suppose he'd be BDTR.

Does BRTD stand for something?

Anyway Reaganfan/Naso is the closest choice here.

He would only buy gas in Trump counties (preferably only in Trump states) and not think it acceptable to ever so much as see a liberal!  He would probably also be vehemently proud about living in the middle of nowhere and generally being a redneck.  Despite this and his decidedly conservative outlook, he would be an atheist- but not the typical atheist, since he would attend some fringe congregating place that somehow connects his lack of faith with conservative principles.  Instead of getting excited to see a hipster Christian play or a Christian alternative rock band, he would go see a redneck atheist movie or a secular country duo.  So, the exact opposite of BRTD!

A conservative version of me (not necessarily an inverse, so no need to be an atheist) would probably be a pretty typical suburban/exurban megachurch-attending evangelical who'd find the inner city repulsive and refuse to visit there and brag about my "all conservative all the time" social circle and lack of liberals, etc. So not much different from your typical movement conservative come to think of it.

Wonder what music I'd listen to...

He'd be a big fan of Sam Harris and would never smoke marijuana because it would conflict with his "all conservative, all the time" philosophy of life but would chain smoke cigarettes.

Also in the 2012 Republican primaries he would have initially supported Gingrich but switched his support to Ron Paul because he didn't want to caucus with olds.

If we were going by a BRTD that was similar in personality and religious beliefs but with completely opposite politics i'm thinking this guy would be a good fit: http://www.theblaze.com/matt-walsh

Actually I'd probably support Romney. I'd probably frequently complain about "True Rightists" and people insisting on ideological purity. And would thus be pretty anti-Tea Party come to think of it. Although yeah I could see myself switching from Romney to Paul.

Not really, no. I mean yeah sure the inverse of someone who's "all liberal all the time" is "all conservative all the time". Who knew?

I'm thinking your primary voting record would be then 2008: McCain or Giuliani, 2012: Romney, 2016: Kasich

The point is that "typical movement conservatives" tend to be pretty cringeworthy people partly for reasons that have nothing to do with their politics.

I'd expect you to say the same thing about "movement liberals", especially with what you think about marijuana and all.

...you still don't get it, do you?

No, it's not about Marijuana. It's about the in-group mentality and tendency to loathe and/or laugh at everything that falls outside of it.

Would call for the deportation of all Iranians and closing of museums that feature Middle Eastern art.

Irony or not, Iran and Russia are geopolitically aligned, at least as of now.
