7. For GOPers, it's strictly for "self-preservation"

They believe in "survival of the fittest" and "individualism" and they still want to be able to hob-nob with their fellow scum when this is all over and they finally manage to go back to "business as usual". That is why all the reminders to the readers about their "business as usual" drivel, including praising the tax cuts for the wealthy, destroying the ACA so that it crumbles on itself, slashing the regulations that protect our environment and the consumer, eventually eliminating anything to do with the New Deal, and pouring that money into military contractors for privatization purposes, while simultaneously screwing the currently-serving soldiers & sailors, and dissing the vets....

It's like their cry from the wilderness to their brethren that they are STILL going to implement the most draconian GOP polices that they can, come hell or high-water, and despite the thing in the WH that they STILL need there to sign off on their stuff (as Grover Norquist so bluntly stated).



This is an example of Be careful what you wish for, you may get it."
