pseudo-patriot 

Conservatives who's loyalty to America and democratic institutions are less than their loyalty to their ethnicity (in support of White nationalism) and political affiliation (ends-justify-the-means support of the Republican party).

For example, supporting or ignoring a foreign adversary's attack/intervention into the election process. Dismissing a free press and their duty to hold politicians accountable if it hurts short term conservative interests by asserting false accusations of fake news and by deflecting attention toward unfounded conspiracy theories.
The pseudo-patriot Trump supporter accuses Obama of bowing to the Saudis, but completely rationalize Trump's bow. He completely lacks any principles when confronted with facts about Trump's connections with Russia. He justifies Russia's manipulation of the American election system. But he wants to ban flag-burning.

pseudo-hippy 

A person who, upon arriving at college, adopts the look of the counterculture, including, but not limited to wearing their hair in dreads, listening to the Grateful Dead, and smelling like patchouli - until their parents come into town, or they are offered a job, or get busted for weed, after which they revert to the preppy look they had in high school.
You should've hooked up with that hot hippy chick last night!
