Yeah this is not complicated. Republicans got away with having super unpopular positions on abortion for years because voters knew the courts would never let them do it. Now that the voters have to actually deal with Republican abortion positions, Republicans lose.One very narrowly specific poll does not validate your claim. Most Polls showed only around 30% supported the Roe v Wade reversal.
Just because I am discussing the issue doesn't mean I am passionate about the issue.The polling is pretty clear. No restrictions is much more popular than a full ban but support generally starts extremely high and declines as the pregnancy progresses.
The majority lands at, you guessed it, feral viability, exactly what Roe protected.
We just had an election where republicans had the worst midterm performance in a generation because America hates their views on abortion. If you want to delude yourself otherwise then enjoy continued losses.
that is most definitely not trump's take on the midterms. how do i know this? it's not his posting style. at all.

And whilst the Supreme Court ruling on Roe vs Wade hurt the Republicans in the recent midterms, I'm not sure it was a bigger factor than Biden's unconstitutional bribe on Student Debt Relief that got smacked down AFTER the midterms.
There’s polling on that too - it was abortion, and to a lesser extent people concerned about Republican attacks on democracy.Just because I am discussing the issue doesn't mean I am passionate about the issue.

Lmao it's so interesting seeing what these people say when they pop out of their conservative echo chamber.

Republicans are going to keep losing and losing until they move left on abortion. On democracy I guess maybe they are betting on only having to win once, haha.
Isn't it now only a State issue for the foreseeable future?
I'm talking about legislation being passed to address abortion, nothing to do with Jan 6.No Mr. Archie Bunker.. its a national issue as Jan 6th showed us.
Isn't it now only a State issue for the foreseeable future?
Nope - lots of legislation could be passed for federal protections. Not only that, but judges all over the country to restore the rule of law.Isn't it now only a State issue for the foreseeable future?
Human rights is an international issue
Wonder if Hakeem Jeffries approached a moderate GOP member and said entire Dem caucus will support them to be speaker instead of the spineless one?1/2/23 update on McCarthy's bid to become speaker tommorow (1/3/23):

I think getting a David McKinley of West Virginia or Don Young of Alaska as Speaker out of this would be a wonderful repudiation of worms like McCarthy. The country has spoken - enough of this crazy shit. Get to work.
I hope those guys are talking at least. I'm sure there are Rs who don't want to spend the next 2 years listening to Gym Jordan's mental masturbations completely ignore what America just told them at the ballot box. GQP thought that last election thumping was embarrassing? Someone hold Joe Biden's beer.
the GQP base is shitty and crazy, they can't win without them. the GQP will continue to double down on them and only get crazier.
there may have been a point where some of these people were reachable, but that time has passed. THere is no more time to reach out to those loons unfortunately, it's time to understand the enemy before it is too late and realize the battle lines have been drawn.
I agree some of them are completely misled and some are reachable. But also there are fundamentally evil people. Either way we have no time to reach out to the reachable ones out there. We just barely hung on to democracy once in the last couple years. Basic freedoms and decency are being attacked left and right. At some point in history battle lines are drawn otherwise one side is caught with their pants down and shitty political parties become authoritarian rulers.I saw this on my YT feed a while ago..
These towns are so in the middle of nowhere they just believe anything the tv tells them vs what people actually act like in cities and suburbs.
So fear takes over and they vote based on fear. It's a race to what can people be afraid of more to motivate those voters and to carry on the grift more.
