It's hard to imagine until you remember some people value money over democracy and human rights.
> None of the priorities the modern republican party has are anything other than destructive, murderous, and frankly fascist.
The Republican party has some yuuge problems and was bigly damaged by the orange president, but statements like you just made are almost always wrong and a sign that your news source is propaganda, not news.
Their two leading candidates to run on behalf of the party for president, have some very anti -democratic tendencies and goals. Taking away choice of reading certain books, avoiding discussions of the "slavery unpleasantries", or destroying federal institutions that stabilize our government, those actions are not going to help business in general, main Street or Wall Street. Democrats are very flawed in themselves but they're not trying to take away social security, Medicare. They went to slightly increase taxes on rich people to keep Medicare going. They want to invest in infrastructure. I just don't know what the Republican strategies are to help these things.
