Indeed. The GOP is all about messaging, not policy/actions:

They claim to be budget hawks while trashing the budget.

They claim to be for free speech, but ban books.

They claim to be for law and order, but whine like babies when Republicans are prosecuted for crimes.

They claim to Back the Blue, but excuse brutalizing Capitol Police

They praise the Constitution and then attempt to overthrow the government.

The believe in freedom of religion, but only for Evangelicals.

They believe in democracy while suppressing the vote.

They believe in freedom of the press, but only for wingnut propagandists.
