5. Highly unlikely.
Their incestuous relationship with the GOP has given them
political power FAR beyond what their tiny numbers justify.
(And wads of $$$, coincidentally...:eyes:)

They aren't gonna walk away from that just because of some
"moral principles" that they never truly embodied.

They may be in a tight spot where their rhetoric meets the road
right now, but I have no doubt that they'll find some convoluted
BS to explain away all the contradictions and continue "business
as usual".

They always have in the past, and "business as usual" is more
lucrative than it's ever been.
