I would argue, Ken, that the "law of self-interest" explains this phenomenon. It trumps rationality and ideology. The action of the DOJ exonerating General Flynn of culpability in the Russian saga following the 2016 election exemplifies this opinion—leaving institutionalists, like brother John Mbaku, scratching his head. Institutionalists believe, among other things, that good institutions exist to further the legitimacy of any regime especially when the political system is attacked by rogue politicians.
