Great hindsight. Many others, myself included, seem to have came to this conclusion (eg. ramzpaul, academic agent) after last American election. And it's not even the mainstream conservatives who do this, only the populist internet ones.

It is hypocrisy if you take their own words, and like hypocrisy and hierarchy are exclusive.
