It’s not a “hot button topic” at all. Today’s WaPo wondered why she’d do this given the popularity of these bills. 74% of Republicans and a split (!!!) Of Democrats support it. And you can likely bump those up in a ruby-red State like hers.
This garbage party can’t even conserve girl’s sports. [Reply]

I made a grammer typo in that post. I meant to type one person does not run an executive office. The buck stops with them though. [Reply]

And it is a seriously dumb hot button item, but at least it keeps people distracted with what is ultimately meaningless. [Reply]

U.S. big businesses and business organizations have long been peddling issues that are hostile to the American workers, but they continue to be the core financial constituency of the GOPe. And the GOPe has been reliable in its willingness to knife the GOP voters in the back at the command of business for a long time.
And it's not as if Trump was telling U.S. businesses, in general, to go pound sand, either, so this isn't just a GOPe/RINO situation. This is a more general political right kowtow. [Reply]

Let’s also not forget that women voted in droves for the democrat party policies. So this affects them and that’s what they want, so good luck to Noem and others when they cry about it down the road. [Reply]

Right now, big financial/corporate interests have been funding big money PACs to keep Cheney in Congress, despite the anger from her constituents who want her voted out. [Reply]

A distinction needs to be made during primary season about what type of Republican is to run against another in any primary. It must be highlighted for here on out. Then there's always the danger of them getting Potomac Fever once they get in DC, where their arms get twisted or they get denied committee assignments because they won't toe the line.
Already there's a Demonrat, trying to throw M Greene out of Congress. They just won't quit when you get a real one who goes against the uni party. [Reply]

It’s incredible GOP voters can’t figure this out. They delude themselves so badly, it’s sad.

See, this is exactly the delusional rationalizations I’m talking about ^. This is how they stay chained on the GOP plantation. [Reply]

no it is NOT. It would highlight most of them as not real cons. I dont believe the freedom caucus falls into that category but they are a small minority . U see things too b n white at times. [Reply]
