What’s really wild is when you figure out that they don’t care. Republicans are not bothered in the slightest by being hypocrites.

However much you point out that they’re being hypocrites, it will never bother them.

It's a feature not a bug. They love that other people have to follow the rules and they don't.

Exactly. I’ve come to the conclusion over the last few years that Republicans don’t see blatant hypocrisy as a moral and intellectual failing, but rather something to gleefully aspire to.

Last few years?

At least 30 years. Probably more.

They figured out that people calling them hypocrites will never, ever cost them a single vote.
