He hasnt called himself conservative in years from what ive seen. Everything is a performative LARP with this guy, he has no true self. Its speculated that his “conservative” arc was simply a product of his first wife, who is much more a product of the MAGA ecosystem. He had to signal all the cargo-cult trappings of American masculinity: guns, cars, conservatism. Then, when he decided to con Nikki into believing that he is husband material ( HA ! ), Pat started play-acting the hard-left FFWBT+ that we all know and love. Its all performance.
