Trump is ending his own political career and showing himself to be the non-ideologue he has always been. Chastising the pro-life base and blaming them on the losses was kinda the last straw. He is losing support and will likely not be the nominee. We’re tired of being attacked for what we believe and we’re tired of leaders who are ideologically melonheads.

And yet, Trump was the one and only Republican President that got Roe V. Wade overturned....

Here’s what Trump specifically said regarding pro-lifers and the midterms.

“Also, the people that pushed so hard, for decades, against abortion, got their wish from the U.S. Supreme Court, and just plain disappeared, not to be seen again,”.

I don’t read that as attacking pro-lifers for what they believe. He’s referring to one issue pro-lifers who, once Roe v Wade was repealed, disengaged from politics. I honestly don’t know how big a factor that was in the mid-terms. I do know there was fraud in most, if not all of the problem states from 2020 (e.g., Arizona, Pennsylvania, Georgia). But some pro-life activists may have stepped back from national politics after Roe v Wade was repealed, for all I know.

Trump is probably exaggerating the effect such voters had on the mid-terms, but beyond that it’s a legitimate issue to discuss. Again, note that he’s not criticizing them for being pro-life but rather for disengaging after the Roe v Wade repeal - a repeal which he helped bring about.

This is slightly less dumb and obnoxious than your usual sophistry ... therefore, where did you steal it from? LOFL.

FRacebook?

GOBshite Briefing Room?

Patrinaughtsnever.win?

LOFL. Did you make sure to bloviate: 'Hey, did you see how much shit i dumped on FR last night?' Meaningless lives of meaningless people.
