But seriously, I think they have to because with all of their gerrymandering and election prices fuckery, they're still losing elections because of their Nasi-ism and fascist daddy issues being front and center of the party now.
They know damn well the writing is on the wall when the daddy issue boomers are dying quicker than they thought, gen-x is split, the new generation hates Nazis, and the fact that they know they can't not be Nazis without losing their base, if they don't win now and squash democracy now they're going to fade away.
