This is the difference between conservative and right-wing.
Conservatives are loyalists who understand on some primal level that you pivot to whatever bullshit maintains support for the people above you. When your football team loses you don't switch sides.
Right-wingers are people who bought some past version of conservatives' bullshit. They're surprised and confused when new contradictions inevitably become too blatant and numerous to excuse.
