Hell, the fucking feminist movement way back--when it was apparent that suffrage was an either/or proposition--immediately flipped to racist principles in order to win. Conservatives care about their own shit. And if they get it, nothing else matters.

"We've destroyed who we are as a country, given up on freedom of religion by Supreme Court decision down party lines, destroyed our standing in the world, abandoned free trade, shit on all of our allies, embraced authoritarian leaders, allowed a hostile country to influence our elections, have a President who is clearly in Putin's pocket, is a clear racist, homophobic xenophobe, and who is completely inept, ignorant, vain, fragile, and stupid and so obviously corrupt that the White House is essentially for sale. But we got tax cuts and will control the Supreme Court, so it's all worth it."

Fuck them.

You are probably right. I say it because I think a normal human being would respond and say, yes, that's horrible stuff, but obviously here no one reacted that way, they shrugged and complained about people being mean to the people putting or supporting putting kids in internment camps, and go on their way.
