Many if not all Republicans are in effect stateless (the previous "vp" comes to mind as the best exemplar, so far).
They're in it to game the system for power and money. Nothing else matters to them (their flag pins aside).

The Banksters and their too-big-to-fail criminal financial enterprises, big pharma, for-profit health insurance, for profit prisons and of course the always present fingers-in-everything Military/Industrial Complex.
