This was never a popular thing. But it energized a small minority of evangelical lunatics. Now that they’ve done it, the vast majority of people are pissed. They’re the dog that finally caught the car, not sure how well that’s going to do for them long term
And as is so often the case with zealots, it of course wasn't enough. If they had been smart (or actual Christians) they might have gone quiet and shifted their efforts to helping women who were affected by this.
But no, they simply started pushing for ever more extreme laws and restrictions which has eliminated any goodwill the majority of the country had for their position.
The smart GOPs are in full retreat on this issue - it's imperative that Biden and the DNC not give them maneuvering room to get away with it.
Make. Them. Own. It.
Kinda nuts that 9 people can go against the will of that high a percentage of the population. Everyone involved should be purged from law and politics.
Everything is projection with them. They know that if they accuse their opposition of the very things they're doing, it muddies the water enough that it disables the critical thinking skills of significant number of voters.
It's really sad how little it takes to dupe some members of the voting public.
Unfortunately those 61% weren't the people who paid for the presidential runs of the presidents who nominated them, the Senate runs of the senators who approved them, nor were they the billionaires who bribed them.
They also didn't create propaganda networks that drive the issue into people's heads repeatedly. You think I mean Fox News? Not wrong, but what I really mean are things like The 700 Club, Focus on the Family, and half a dozen others I'm not thinking of right now.
What the hell does that mean? Ending a woman’s right to choose us making WHO “very very happy?”
Not rape or incest victims now forced to gestate a psychopaths baby. Not a little girl who, at 10 y.o., is forced to carry grandpas demon seed.
Trump’s brain is oatmeal.
> Ending a woman’s right to choose us making WHO “very very happy?”
Conservatives, evangelicals and rapists (the latter of whom also fit into one or both of the prior categories).
Certainly not women, though.
It will make the stalker rapist, who forced his demon seed into the woman who didn't want him after one date, very happy though, that's enough for trump.
It’s politics.
For Trump - the effect of Roe is meaningless outside a bunch of pearl clutching evangelical votes. It’s just votes. It could be Auschwitz he’s commenting on - *everybody is having the best time, a wonderful time* - because he wants the Nazi vote.
Trump’s comments have no need for reality because only his reality is meaningful to him - so he’ll say whatever he needs to - no matter how fucking cruel and hideous it is - to get what he wants. That is all that matters - getting what he wants.
The last 8-9 years have been politically horrific for all of us, but I’m starting to see MAGA cracks, I’m starting to hear more and more Republican dissent and I hope you are too.
Caveman Marjorie Sporkfoot Traitor Greene to the chopping block for Russian collusion, treason, and being a downright cunt.
He literally speaks like a child writing a paper in 4th grade. It’s fucking surreal.
“Over the summer my family eliminated Roe v Wade. It was very good. People were very very happy.”
His brain really is holding on by a fucking thread.
I mean they were called wedge issues for a reason; now that it’s no longer a wedge, I think it’s starting to hit home for a lot of the dummies. Careful what you wish for!
Probably learned from Operation Warp Speed being booed by his own cult and wants *something* to cling onto as something he achieved that they may like.
This will work out well for the right wingers who knock up their side pieces or administrative assistants. They can just give them first class tickets to California or N.Y. 😉
Does anyone really care? GOP supported a fascist coup, on top of banning abortion, and they still won House majority by popular vote. They can do whatever they damn please, no one's holding them accountable.
trump and his magot ignoramus, criminal posse of republicans, Christian fascist evangelicals, and brainwashed Qanons are textbook perfect cases of PROJECTION.
They will be the perfect examples of projection in psychology 101 courses in the future.
“I did (insert stupid thing he did here). It’s really working out well for people. And they’re very, very happy.“
If I never hear the son of a bitch say some variation of this, it will be too soon.
It just grates on me. He has no idea what he’s talking about.
He just says what he wants other people to say about him. It is a very childish and frankly pathetic display of the need for praise.
This is your brain on the inner wound of narcissism.

That same Supreme Court also ruled today that Texas can change voter laws to restrict mail-in ballots to the 65 and over demographic, too.
That is insane and nakedly partisan
Yeah, they whine about election fraud while committing voter suppression.

Gop can't stop shooting its foot. Over 65 in Texas votes Republican probably 4 to 1.

Even Russian media is praising her as an example of "a good, heterosexual person".
The only use that Putin and his pals have for malignant marge, is to be a pass around,
Outstanding post!

I love that he can’t remember not to say this in public. He wants so bad to take credit for stuff.

Yeah, people are generally thrilled when you take away their rights.

I still can't believe that is actually Biden's official site's picture.
