    It makes sense when you realize that his (and so many like him, all following Trump’s lead) only driving force is to own the libs. That’s the whole platform, literally nothing else matters.

    Enflame the culture war = votes. Because that’s all that matters to so, so many Republican voters.

      His only driving force is to gain money/power. “Owning libs” does that to an extent, but catering to meat/cattle industry lobbyists is much more effective.

      like yes, but “only”?

      pretty sure he is taking some pretty hefty “donations” from the industries these rules will immediately benefit. in this case the added fuel to the culture war is just a bonus.
