    No it just shows their morals aren’t even foundational. They would vote Democrat if they thought it would gave them power of others.

      On the contrary, their morals are very foundational; and they’d often rather die than deviate from them. It’s just that they know their actual morals are reprehensible, so they claim different morals as the winds blow to hide the truth.

      Which is, simply, to have an in-group that the law protects but does not bind, and an out-group the law binds but does not protect, and then to plop themselves firmly in the first group and as many people as they can get away with in the second.

      They’re fine having some people in the in-group with them, as long as those people think, look, and act like they do; anyone else is a dangerous ‘other’ that must be dumped into the second group immediately.
