Im barely a millennial in the oldest bracket but it counts. I was raised really conservatively and stuck with it mostly for a good decade and a half into adulthood, but Ive definitely moved to the left since then (not that Im super liberal, but definitely much more moderate compared to where I started).

I grew up in a very conservative family. I used to say I was conservative and even listened to fucking conservative talk radio while driving into my college classes everyday.

When Obama won the election and Glenn Beck literally started crying on air that America was over now I fucking realized these people were a bit insane. It was no longer 'lets laugh at political news' and the most pathetic cry baby shit ever. I stopped listening when it was all panic mode 24/7. I wasn't in deep enough in the brain rot that I also became panic mode over Obama.

I did vote against Obama in his first term, and for him in the 2nd term. I actively think Obama was the best president in my lifetime so far too.

My mom also stopped being conservative during Trump's presidency.

This is an honest to goodness benefit Trump had, and it was pushing some people into switching sides against him because he was a fucking disgusting person in his 4 years in office. As long as the person wasn't in that Fox News brainwashing routine I think most people who were in the 'well how bad can it be' for Trump to get elected realized, it can be PRETTY DAMN BAD.
