Republican voters don't care that Russia is colluding with Republicans to get them elected. Republican voters have been convinced that Russians are better than lazy, deadbeat, baby killing, snowflake, subhuman Democrats.
The Republican base votes against Democrats, votes against their own best interests.

Yeah I agree we need to get money out of politics but we also need to bring back the Fairness Doctrine.
