It's because the corporate donors that support 2 are okay with 1 but fucking hate 3 because they threaten profits.

Well, not that clear cut nowadays. The far right have started getting all about super high tariffs and broadly impeding international trade and also getting rid of people who also generally provide a cheap labor market. Also a general sense of a will to undermine economy for the sake of their beliefs. The promises of lower taxes now come with some costs that likely make it not worth it.
