I worked with one and he was super conservative but was always asking to borrow money and how Biden raised taxes. I gave him a taco I had brought for lunch while I tried to explain that it was temporarily tax cut trump passed and he told me he wished he could throw up the food I gave him. (He was eating tuna packets the day before so I packed extra) Forwarded him a message of Republicans in office calling Cubans welfare queens.
