Crank

(Noun) Typically an older conservative person who’s usually retired and spends a lot of time on their recliner watching Fox News and finding frivolous things to complain about. Prone to Not In My Back Yard (NIMBY) outrage, they have a hot temper and very willing to get messy. Some of the most entitled people you’ll ever meet, ready to throw fits to get what they want, and often do. Often associated but not limited to the Baby Boomer generation.
