My in-laws got married in 1964, and their politics are polar opposites.

She - liberal - very nice, calm, friendly lady, BUT, actually kicked chairs over in the kitchen, in a rage, when Trump was elected. He - conservative - constantly watching Fox news, then switched to OAN or something similar (more conservative). Trump lover

And they get along really well.

I don't know if that kind of story happens anymore. Like the example you gave, unfortunately some women really won't date someone that's not on their wavelength, politically.

I also saw a forum post once (MrMoneyMustache) where the lady poster would only date someone who believes in global warming. Sheesh.
