The remnants of the Republican Party, left in tatters, subsequent to the so-called Tea Party Movement manifestation. The Left Behind Republican Party is constituted of the leftovers, the politicians who were simply too single-minded and too corrupt to change over. As a result, there are now TWO Republican Parties. The Left Behind facet is a double entendre allusion to the popular book and film series, Left Behind, which focuses on the Christian Fundamentalist doctrine of "The Rapture".
The Left Behind Republican Party will certainly not earn Mitt Romney's endorsement since he believes in Women's Rights, or at least says that he does.

I was so confused on why he called himself a liberal republican until I found out he was actually just a centrist.

A Republican who is both the victim and perpetrator of the things they vote against what could help but still complains about, or in some instances vote against and then take credit if the policy has passed.
Ted Cruz is a Schrödinger's Republican
Eg 1.
Ted Cruz: This pipeline will bring jobs.
Everyone: You voted against this...
Eg2.
Ted Cruz: Inflation is bad. Joe Biden is the cause.
Everyone: You voted against easing inflation. Joe Biden is the cause of inflation WORLD-WIDE??? Are you a moron, sir?

A hypothesis that predicts a pattern of hypocrisy from prominent figures in entertainment, politics, etc. It posits that, "the louder someone is for a value of ethic and/or moral behavior, the less likely they actually subscribed to it in their personal lives." The name comes from the stereotypical "Christian values" conservative who supports anti-LGBTQ legislation, only to get caught leaving a gay bar or sleeping with a male prostitute. This isn't isolated to such cases, as the Gay Republican fallacy applies to any case of a public figure who's a proponent for a specific cause/value getting outed for actions that contradict their advocacy. This can be a celebrity who's a big supporter of feminism, only to get ousted for having a history of predatory behavior. It could also be a reality TV show husband whose a proponent of "traditional family values" and being loyal to your wife getting caught having an affair or an account on an adult chat site. Maybe is comes from a place of guilt or self-loathing, or maybe these individuals' public personas are a self aware grift to draw up support from specific demographics (the religious, the politically correct, etc.). The answer is unclear, but the Gay Republican fallacy always has been and always will be; as ling as there's a celebrity or politician ruins their reputation by being a complete hypocrite.
Wow, James Franco hopped on the #metoo movement, only to get ousted for using his acting school to pressure female students into sleeping with him. Just another example of the Gay Republican Fallacy.

a tame/respectful way of referring to the deplorable group of republicans who have unending support for Trump and would wear a red MAGA hat.

The guys on college campuses who are responsible for the use and distribution of roofies (or Rohypnol) on college campuses and off-campus parties. Although they're always guilty of whatever horrid act they're accused of, they're rarely if ever held responsible, no matter how much evidence is brought against them (because of their daddies).
They are usually dressed like an 8-year-old participating in an Easter egg hunt at a country club and have some sort of run of the mill white name (i.e. Conner, Hunter, Brock, Cameron). Their favorite rapper is Post Malone because he's while and sponsored by Bud Light. Otherwise, they tend to listen to whatever is on the Top 40, refusing to leave out the N-word in singalongs.

"Who would have the caucacity to hold an all-lives-matter tiki torch rally on campus on MLK day?" "It's probably the college republicans celebrating that their Treasurer, Dakota Winthorp, only got a slap on the wrist after he was found responsible for all the roofies at that 'Fuck your holiday, THIS IS CHRISTMAS' party that had 15+ confirmed cases of date-rape"
