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.

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?

Get the Schrödinger's Republicanmug. 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.

Get the California Republicanmug. An elected Republican who honors their oath to defend the Constitution by to be willing to investigate a domestic terrorist attack on the Constitutional process of counting the electoral ballots.
Rep. Liz Cheney and Rep. Adam Kinzinger agreed to serve on the House Select Committee investigating the January 6th domestic terrorist attack on the Capitol, and were labeled "Pelosi republicans" by Republican House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy.

Get the Republicanmug. Very slow and boring pornography that gets the job done in an offensive way. (Once extremely popular from 2000-2008)
Guy 1: I don't have time to search for my fetish today, I need satisfactory porn now!
Guy 2: Try Republican porn, it's the vanilla ice cream of porn!

Get the republican pornmug. A political identity characterized by being both gay and a member of the Republican Party, embodying a unique blend of personal and political values. Far from being a contradiction, a Gay Republican strives to bridge the gap between diverse communities and political ideologies. They are likened to a modern-day Abraham Lincoln, aiming to unite a divided nation by promoting understanding, inclusivity, and common ground. Despite facing skepticism from all sides, they advocate for a more cohesive society where diverse identities and beliefs can coexist harmoniously.
As a Gay Republican, he worked tirelessly to bring together conservative values and LGBTQ+ rights, hoping to inspire unity and progress in the spirit of Lincoln.
