After another flaccid debate, Republican operatives and donors are privately expressing what they can’t yet state openly: the 2024 race is probably over, the debates aren’t moving the needle. Which means that Trump and whoever he picks will be the top of the ticket. It doesn't matter what DeSantis commits to, he won't be there.
Republicans - we think states should be allowed to make their own decisions
Also Republicans - we believe this opinion should be forced on all states
I'm so glad that he is making this deeply personal decision for himself and his family. Oh wait...
Republicans for 50 years: "abortion should be left to the states to decide!!!"
Republicans the instant they get power: "we're going to force our minority opinion on EVERYONE in every state. We're taking away the rights of ALL women."
Republicans hate women. They believe them to be second class citizens. Yet, I've seen too many not give a shit, until the last minute even. Then even then not put all the pieces of the puzzle together to figure out who is screwing them over. Most times others get blamed in the process. Their brains are broken. Because Republicans are trash doesn't mean you have to look for others to be trash, too.
Remember the ERA (Equal Rights Amendment)? It was largely defeated by anti-feminist women (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phyllis_Schlafly#Opposition_to_Equal_Rights_Amendment)
Republicans do not think women are second class citizen. That would imply they are independent citizens.
Republicans think women are property. Full stop.
Step 1: remove a thing. (Example: no more abortions)
Step 2: trickle it back in to see how much you can get away with. (Example: abortions for some, but like with strict limitations)
Step 3: try to win over fans by saying you never believed in removing it in the first place
We are at step 2.
His governorship should've been aborted last year, before the second term. But the morons wanted More Ron.
He is just saying it. Its not real, he will absolutely change his mind. They always do.
Everyone in awhile a politician says what he will really do if elected. This is one of those time I believe he would.
You mean that you think it's going to be less than 15 weeks when they try to implement it, right? Like a total abortion ban?
Yes. A lot less, possibly the outright ban.
That's exactly what will happen
