As I have often pointed out, conservatives sort into moderates and radicals according to the different means they select to achieve their common ends.
The radicals are the government shutdown types; the moderates would not on their own choose to wreck the government, the country, or the global economy to get their way.
In general, the radicals propose nothing unlawful or unconstitutional, however.
Not every form of wickedness or folly is forbidden by the laws or the constitution.
Paul Waldman writes of a similar distinction, in special relation to the rise of Trump and the senate refusal to consider Garland.
How the Merrick Garland nomination explains the rise of Donald Trump
Yes, yes.
The time order is wrong.
But anyway.
