Why are the Republicans so against in the Oath - Are they pledging Allegiance to uphold the Constitution, the base and who support Trump or other?

Republican Who Took Oath to Defend Constitution Totally OK With Trump Saying He’d Terminate It

Republican Rep. Dave Joyce not only refused to condemn Trump’s recent statement calling for the Constitution to be suspended, the congressman said he would still support the former president should he become the GOP presidential nominee in 2024. In case the representative needs a reminder, he swore in his oath of office to “uphold and defend” the Constitution

When host This Week George Stephanopoulos asked Joyce for his reaction to Trump’s statement, the congressman first tried to evade the question, saying Republicans are “not interested in going backwards.” He then went on a tangent about inflation and household budgets in an attempt to change the subject, but Stephanopoulos kept pressing.

I think more than half are against trump over. Trying to say constitution is wrong for election he will start to crumble his claims he will see less people ever vote for him but the true stupid even 5he smart who are brain washed might wake up but less people who believe he can do no wrong won't read how he wanted cars to pollute like in 70s cuz he probably got got pay outs for gas companies
