Really shot themselves in the foot here. Look at those graphs.
What’s crazy is they are still making more extreme forced birth laws. Maybe they are trying to get as many in before they lose power? Or they figure people will still vote Republican regardless so they only care about winning their primary with the most batshit crazy person on the ballot. We really need the FDA to approve the abortion pills for over the counter. Fuck these assholes.
It's like all of the republican platform. It's all a purity tests and only the most extreme survive.
They're going harder because they can't pump the breaks. Every time they pump the breaks, the MAGAts scream and threaten. They can't win without the MAGAts and they can't win without the moderates. So they're banking on winning over moderates later with some bogus bullshit they pull out of a hat later, while keeping the MAGAts happy now.
Who knew that taking away people rights would make them upset. Weird
