Then you're not paying any fucking attention at all.
I think @Leonardo17 is actually right, insofar as the Republicans have any ideology at all. The Republicans who really believe their ideology -- Kinzinger, Cheney, Romney, and so on -- have already walked out. Not that that's a good thing, they should have stayed and fought for the soul of the party, but the ragged remainders don't give a shit about ideology at all, they just want to hitch their trailer to the Trump oxen and hope to make out.
The remainders have no ideology. They're sucking the cultish dick, the JD Vances of the world. The ideologues are bailing out. That's good for 2024. We'll see how deep that "conviction" is.
