For those thinking “well this couldn’t include things like the military”, it ABSOLUTELY CAN AND WILL. The GOP wanted someone who will run the country like a business, AND THIS is how business is run now - absorb a company, strip it for parts to sell off, move onto the next company, repeat. “The next company” here being, likely, another country.
I never get a good answer regarding why they think a government should be ran like a business. They don’t fill the same niches, and the Constitution clearly lays out the role of government:
…form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity…
Nothing about consolidating profits into the hands of a few, nothing about profits at all, actually. Nothing about buying/manufacturing and selling goods or services
And why do they always trot out the worst possible examples of businessmen as who they want to run said imaginary corpocountry (Trump is self explanatory, but Romney’s entire ethos was buying companies and bankrupting them)?

Well they don’t actually believe in the constitution
It’s not an invasion, it’s a merger! Perfectly fine!
