    Because you have two primary camps there right now - the corpocratic old guard and the nationalistic new guard. The nationalists were never actually supposed to have power, they were just meant to be an easily manipulable voter base. It’s not even the first time they’ve had an ‘inmates running the asylum’ situation because the exact same thing happened with racists when they tried the Southern Strategy.
