The Rules

That’s what I don’t understand, either. Even if they were a totally cynical asshole about it, a Republican should love the idea of getting rich by fleecing progressive “idiots”.

Hell, I’ve imagined designing Trump hats, shirts, and bumper stickers just to make money off his popularity, and then donating to a cause or charity Republicans despise.
