I might have said this before at some point, but I wouldn't be surprised if the Republicans, sometime around 2020, were suddenly exposed through a memo leak as classical Marxists attempting to provoke the USA and, by proxy, the Western world into a revolution. As a hypothesis, it explains their actions so much more than "they're really right wing", and is in fact the second best hypothesis for this purpose.
The first, of course, is "they're fucking insane".
