The recent vote in Ohio is just one of a string of cases where voters show they mostly support abortion access to some extent (1). Polls show the same. (2) So why do Republicans (specifically Republican politicians, not necessarily Republican voters) keep trying to do something unpopular?
My (perhaps cynical) view of Republican politicians is that they’re the “do anything to win” party. They would take any stance and pull any trick if it would give them a better chance of winning. So why are they so stuck on a losing issue?
I don’t agree they’re trying to destroy the right to vote or stripping anyone’s freedom. Without examples it’s hard to have that conversation. Oh I don’t want Trump to run again. I am shocked he’s still so popular. Ignore the debate about his crimes. The courts have to evaluate those.
As a person, he’s just a jackass. He’s not really a conservative. He’s just a jackass.
Right now I’m not sure there is a single republican running for president I can vote for.
Here’s more than 425 examples: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republican_efforts_to_restrict_voting_following_the_2020_presidential_election
Republicans know they’re in the minority, and they know their “policies” are unpopular. So they resort to fascism.
You personally might not want trump to run again. But the republican party is full-throatedly lying for and defending that filthy fucking traitor with all their hearts.
So that’s what you support when you vote for Republicans. The end of democracy and the installation of America’s first dictator.
Btw, there’s nothing to debate about whether or not the front running republican presidential candidate is a felon or not.
The evidence is overwhelming and some of the most damning is public. Grand juries have just a 1% non-conviction rate.
You will be aligning with a fascist party who seeks to elect a seditious FELON for president. Those are your people.
