The Republicans consider political power over everything else; there is no right or wrong any more, only wins and losses. Every event, every vote, every statement passes through that filter. The impeachment trial highlights this. It does not matter how much evidence the House presented, the Republican Senators only focused on protecting their party, which depends on there being no break from the propaganda machine's output.
