More about corporatist, but they figured the Republican label was a convenient one to use in the 1980. There are some that really do have a different view in both parties.

But to get to that place there are lots of training hoops and selection systems.



Someone once postulated that a different company owns each journalist or politician, and to remove their feeling on that. they are told they can own someone some day. Pretty silly, so much better to have a friend then a slave. I would guess it is done by concepts of 'sponsorship' then the person sponsoring the person gets any blame for what the person does.

Fascinating concept where people in 'the group' can only support someone outside by sponsorship, but the outside person doesn't get to know anything, unless they are allowed into full membership by some agreements on issues, and agreements with some groups. I don't follow that system, it is training to what a small group wants if you are willing to be like them.

Then again much of it is suspension of disbelief that allows much of the reasons people think those things.
