MAGA people can't feel shame over any of this, they are incapable. This is a wealth and religion thing, you'll notice MAGA people are nearly universally either wealthy, religious or both.
Particularly in America (because of the historical confluence of wealth and religion) these two types of people don't experience shame the same way normal people do. Wealthy people's sense of superiority over their position in society has bred in them the notion that shame is for their lessers. The richer they are, the worse this is. Religious people feel that nothing in the world is more righteous than sticking it to nonbelievers and no effort put forth in pursuit of that goal can be considered shameful. In fact, the opposite. In any case their shame quotient is sodden with their own repressed sexuality.
