When did a right-winger last convince you that they were right about something and you were wrong?

[Populist_Prole]

33. I've found some common ground in some their opinions, but not the groups they carry water for

What I mean is that in issues, say economic policy, they themselves will have opinions or ideas that I can live with- BUT - because they are either not very well read/informed or under the thrall of confirmation bias it is NOT the actual opinion of the particular party, political figure or bloc that they support at the ballot box. In short, they put a moderate spin on the bad policy to make it sound agreeable to me even though I know damned well that's NOT the way the GOP rolls. You see, I'm an ex-conservative, and I know all their tricks.

The other point is that as an ex-conservative, I get irritated when right wingers try to redouble their efforts to convert me. They act like they're offering me new as yet unheard revelations that are sure to make me come to their side, but are in reality preaching to a disgusted ex-choir member, so to speak. I try to tell them that I fully understand their position: But I'm in complete disagreement with them. They can argue a suavely or with all the sophistry they can muster, but it is they that have it wrong, not I.
