The good news is that these asshats tend to fuck up their strategy and only make things worse for their own stated position. Memes about “Trump is playing 5D chess” were originally about trying to explain away nutty behavior as if Trump is a strategic genius. Given the way other GOP plans have gone–from the fight over the Speaker of the House to DeSantis picking a fight with Disney–this now seems common for the entire party.
Which wasn’t always the case. GOP strategy used to be tight. Evil, but tight.
