My thoughts, whatever their value, are that the egotism, love of power, monstrous greed, and pure hatred of the progressive left blinds them to the consequences of their chaotic, hate-fueled actions. They are the sort of bad apple whose mind is always focused laser like on what it wants and how to get it, be it more control, more money, or how to make Constitutionalists suffer and even die.
So they are killing the chicken that lays the golden eggs in order to get what they want and to make the people they hate suffer and don't see that with the death of the chicken will be the end of their power, etc.
.
Those in power will always have chickens to lay golden eggs. Those they rule over will have nothing and like it or be stood against the wall
