    One of the things that comes from the POLITICO piece on Wisconsin's GOP voters is that "but abortion" is pretty much the only thing that holds some of these people in the GOP - to the point of incoherence about any other values.https://twitter.com/RadioFreeTom/status/1307015468885180418 …

    I was alerted to this @TimAlberta piece from @SykesCharlie's newsletter, and as usual, listening to Trump voters describe life on Earth 2 - where Trump is a pretty good president who's just a little rough around the edges - sapped my will to live. https://politi.co/3kuyNDnvia

        You are correct. Their other fallback is that he is pro religious freedom and will hold up what Obamacare “did” to the Little Sisters of the Poor. Someone should takes look at who funded their court battles.

        Did you ask for their pro-life thoughts on all the people who’ve died and continue to die from covid? The selective outrage always gives away that their position is about controlling bodies, not saving lives.

        What about "but 200 thousand people and counting?" If they don't care about Americans who are dying by the thousands I don't believe they care about proto-Americans in utero either. Or do they just abandon human beings the day they are born?

        I can't imagine being a single-issue voter. The world is too complex.
