Agree plus your comment made me look up origin of "monger." Now I understand why brokerage firms don't call themselves "securities-mongers."

If it's "motivated by pure political theater", why call him a bigot? It seems, rather, that he's a cynical political huckster willing to pass bigoted laws in exchange for votes.

That's a different thing, and if we are trying to predict his behavior (what all such analysis is) we should recognize his true motivations.
