I didn’t anticipate the extent to which Dems would turn on each other, though. Granted, they’re famous for forming circular firing squads, but I thought the end of abortion rights would be different because of their shared incentive to use the ruling to galvanize voters ahead of the midterms. Here was an issue on which virtually the entire party could and presumably would unite, sensing an urgent threat to other substantive due process rights like contraception and gay marriage. After the internecine battles over Build Back Better, Democrats would finally have a clear culture-war fight around which all sides of their coalition could coalesce.
Three weeks removed from the ruling, however, the bottom is falling out of the president’s approval rating as liberals rage at how powerless they feel despite their control of the federal government. I assumed the biggest political casualty of Roe being overturned would be Republican candidates running in purple House districts. In fact, the biggest casualty — so far — is pro-choice Joe Biden.
How disgusting is the Democrat Party? So disgusting that their candidates argue over who is more pro-baby-killing....and the most extreme is likely the winner.
