It’s weird how to republicans there is nothing between Lindsey Graham/Liz Cheney and Rand Paul and you must be one or the other. It’s a great insight in to their binary way of thinking.
I don’t think many - if any - prominent democrats qualify as Neocons (maybe Cardin is the closest) but what they aren’t is isolationist, autocrat lovers like Trump. Apart from anything else, being hawkish and neoconservative aren’t synonyms.
Honestly some times when I see right wingers call everyone neoconservatives it feels a bit like when Tankies call everyone Trotskyists - ie an anti-Semitic dog whistle.
