2. It's been proven time and again

Most Americans support liberal economic policies when you don’t label them as such because of the way Republicans have succeeded in controlling the narrative about “conservatism”.

3. Wanting free stuff for yourself but not "others" is not a liberal position

It's pretty firmly in the "national socialism" camp. Social welfare for your racial group. Social warfare for everybody else. Typical trump voter.

4. Even in deep red areas when the ACA is described to people, they love it

But call it "Obamacare" and they reflexively oppose it.

Which is ironic considering the ACA/Obamacare is basically a souped up version of the plan developed by the conservative Heritage Foundation.
