Captain America would most definitely be Republican, go ahead and take this headcanon from my COLD DEAD HANDS.
Son, what makes you think Captain America would be a REPUBLICAN? First off, he’s the son of Irish Immigrants, which in his day were maligned and discriminated against , secondly, he’s an artist who grew up poor and near one of New York’s gay communities, he also grew up disabled in an era where Eugenics was on the rise and people would have berated him for being a burden on society, he grew up during the rise of socialism in the US. so he’s a backer of the New Deal, Social Security and Unions, help for the poor and the working class. He had the first intregrated unit in the Army (in the comics and the mcu) and in the MCU had a woman as his superior officer. And in the movies his best friends and allies are THE FALCON and THE BLACK WIDOW.
In real life Steve Rogers was created by two young Jewish men who had Cap punch Hitler in the face on the cover of Cap’s first comic book when the US didn’t want to enter the War. That’s a political statement of intent that rings true today.
Damn right Cap would never be a Republican, not when the leader of their party the Orange Imbecile is giving aid to foreign enemies and spewing white supermacist hate. Notice how ALL THE PEOPLE IN THE ABOVE POST ARE NOT REPUBLICANS.
Cap would be punching Republicans all over the place. He fucking hates fascists–canonically–and the GOP openly supports all fourteen common characteristics of fascist states.
