"But The ELECTION!!!", They Said

A couple of days ago we mentioned the real reason that Pubbies do stupid things.

Principles are NOT that reason.  Here's Mark Meadows to explain it all to you.

...Meadows said the decision against firing Fauci was made due to fear of that such a termination “would send the wrong message” to the public about the administration’s strategy to address the coronavirus outbreak.

“[Anthony Fauci] obviously had some allies within the West Wing,” he stated. “At the end of the day, I think there was a decision that — [given] his background with NIH and his insight — firing him right before a November 3rd election perhaps would send the wrong message that we’re not taking science seriously, which there was nothing further from the truth.”...

Which is to say that Meadows--like almost every other Pubbie in office--cannot make a convincing case for What Is Right.

That means that they don't believe.

Got it.  Thanks.
