I'm not sure. I'm one of the following: 

Ambivalent right - except I sure as hell didn't vote for Trump and found him to be an immediate embarassment. 

Stressed sideline - except I'm the opposite where I'm fiscally conversative and socially liberal. 

Establishment liberal - except I would have never thought of myself this way, but maybe this is what I'm morphing in to.

Quiz says I'm an Establishment Liberal.  :bag:

Time for some deep self-examination. (Feel free to take that as engaging in a serious mental/emotional exercise or an off-color joke about my private proclivities)

 
I got Ambivalent Right. They got me pretty much nailed with their reasoning, actually, though I’d say I’m a bit different than their assignation suggests. I sort of renounced the American right over the past four years. I don't see myself as ambivalent about eschewing the part of the right that they suggest I'm eschewing, especially when the leading intellectual organs of that side of the aisle are anti-democratic.

This is how I voted and pretty much why I did. 

Then the test thing told me I was lefty.

 
Interesting that Ambivalent Right is getting the most votes from this far left site.  
Maybe Manchin is correct that this country is center right.    Yet the dems keep moving farther left.   Trump is a reaction to that.   He was just the  outsider at the right time.

 
Observations:

I don't think people are being honest about being in the populist group - but they have a concern being identified with the less educated group.

Committed Conservatives and Establishment Liberals make up a huge number of the group - and do not seem that far apart.  They should be able to work something out - throw in the ambivalent and they dominate.

The Faith and Flag group represents a small number of the universe - but sure posts a heck of a lot in here 🤣

yup

 
I expected to be put in Establishment Liberal but it put me in Democratic Mainstay because I answered more pro-military and pro-exceptionalism than they allow for Establishment Liberal.

 
I don't see myself in there i guess.  I am socially very progressive, i want to protect the environment and am strongly anti religion but also believe in low taxes and getting rid of useless government programs

I took the quiz and got democratic mainstay which i really disagree with.  I thought the quiz was silly and didn't have enough nuance

Populist right does describe me in some ways. I do have less education no college degree h.s. diploma for me. When I got out of the Army I got married so had to go to work no time for college. I do have a very right leaning opinion on immigration. By that I mean do it legally no open borders.

I do not want Trump to run again. If that happens a Republican candidate that could fix the mess we are in (Desantis)will not get the chance to run.

The people who actually run this country will never allow a Trump victory. The propaganda Machine will start as soon as he announces. What I mean by the people who actually run the country are both the Republican and Democrat hierarchy.  There are no differences between them they are both looking out for one thing themselves. 

 
I took the quiz twice as there was one question in particular I was on the fence on.  It changed me the 2nd time to what I guessed at - Outsider left.

I will say there were several questions where I didn’t feel strongly in my answer.
