41. He can lie AND further his own, unstated beliefs.

Just as you can watch TV while you tie your shoes.

I believe belonging to today's corrupt and insurrectionist gang in DC is in itself proof of very bad character, not doing a good job of hiding behind that aren't-we-nice?! face. So it's probably not the best time to look for high-minded conservative principles.

But even that doesn't mean he can't have personal beliefs and goals. How could he not? "I serve me" and "I hate Democrats and screw every Democratic Uncle Tom who thinks I should also kiss white liberal ass" might not seem much of an ideology, but for some it serves.
