There is a school of thought that says that there almost no "Independents" in the USA at all, only people unwilling to use "Democratic" or "Republican" as a label, and that the overwhelming majority of them fall into the "almost-never-trump Republican" category.
Lemme guess- that 'school of thought' originates in one of the two major parties. Statistically, independents are the largest demographic by registration, so any further insight is based on various polls I'd assume?
Basically everyone close to me is independent (mostly in the 'leans' democrat category), generally despises both parties, and I know many people who have voted for candidates from different parties in back to back elections.
