Don't bother looking for logical consistency in right wing legislation. It isn't there, and drawing attention to their hypocrisy will drive you insane cuz none of them care.

The only thing that's ever consistent is the cruelty: the goal is always to hurt some out-group. Often at the cost of hurting themselves, but so long as the out-group is hurt too, they don't mind falling on their own sword to make it happen.
