I don't think you're wrong, but you're missing the core issue.
He's saying this because he has no morals, and it's advantageous to him. He gets to sabotage the government and blame it on wokeness, he gets points with his base for both calling out the Dems and blocking access to reproductive control of the lower class, and he gets points with his faction for strengthening their position.
And forget hypocrisy, by doing something and accusing the Dems before they get a chance to react, he frames the truth as copium.
These people are inhuman. Republicans will embrace hypocrisy and do mental gymnastics to "own the libs", and they're laughing… But the far right politicians aren't doing this for fun.
They're doing it because if you position yourself correctly, destruction is extremely profitable. All but a fraction of the worth of a thing is destroyed, but a small group gets the value because they knew it was coming first (because they did it).
That's what this is… Destroying our society bit by bit. And although it means things will be worse for everyone (including them), comparatively they can get a bigger slice of a smaller pie
