I started a post that turned out to be too clever by half, based on the idea that liberals think of themselves as chaotic good as a leftover from the 70s when people were moving into communes and becoming Jesus people and breaking the marijuana laws and having very different fashions. That devolved into just sticking it to The Man by having different fashions and music. Ha ha, oldsters! But as they took over the institutions - journalism, education, government, mainstream religion - they are now lawful neutral. They frame Trump as a good-evil axis, but it's the law-chaos axis that really upsets them. I think even a lot of his supporters see him as chaotic neutral, with the chaos part being necessary enough to outweigh other considerations.
That's okay as far as it goes, but it's only half an idea and when I tried to expand it the various branches kept collapsing with counterexamples in quick order. Play with it on your own if you like.
