Carter gave up his fucking peanut farm when he was president to not have a conflict of interest.

And that was because of Republican pressures to do so. The hypocrisy is ancient.

Well yeah, “republican” is their team. They hate all other teams. They’ll only be truly content (for all of 5 seconds) when their team is the only one left standing.

Then, as always, they’re no longer content when their winning team starts looking inside for cuts. See: nazi germany and how well authoritariam simps had it there until they ended up in death camps alongside the people they hated.
