      They’re not just cowards, they’re greedy capitalists.

        Economic systems exist beyond socialism and capitalism. The GQP want a dictatorship. Bend the knee or we’ll use state power to punish you. If it was as simple as capitalism, Disney would still have their weird pseudo-government thing.

          That’s true that there are more systems, but I think most Republican politicians are just capitalists despite everyone playing the Christofascist game that was unlocked recently because Trump proved it wins votes. If they could win elections to be in power to steal more money just by being Bush neocons, then I think they’d do that.

          There are a few true believers, just like with Christianity itself (albeit a distorted version), among Republicans but I really think they aren’t so ideological at core. They have a price, and Putin paid it.
