All these seemingly inconsistent stances make more sense once you look at what ties it all together. They want power. Over others. Via money. By rallying against a common enemy. Doesn't matter how of if it makes sense. As long as it works and gives them power the Republicans will do it.

Except that Republican voters will not have any of that power, the elected politicians will.
