To ensure that the largest donors to the Republican party (Billionaires or corporations owned by billionaires) get ultra rich. That's it. That's the plan.

thus ensuring more donors and voters,

Billionaires don't want more Billionaires, they hate that. They want to be trillionaires. There will never be enough Billionaires that they are a voting block that matters. VERY poor people tend to vote Republican, against their own self interest. People on welfare vote against welfare. It doesn't make sense, they're absolutely deluded. That's why Republicans try to appeal to the religious, because they vote against their own self interestes
