He likes the perception of power more than power itself. He declares victory, gets it ‘stolen’ and then is ‘forced’ to leave. He then starts a media company or something.

He’ll lose MI, WI, and AZ. That’s enough to tip Biden over the edge

    I know how dumb this sounds but I'm asking it in good faith: how much do they really give a shit about overturning Roe v. Wade? Or I guess what I'm asking is, what's the material benefit of overturning Roe v. Wade? I can't imagine any of these ghouls are honestly defending or opposing abortion based on moral reasoning. It seems like politicians have a lot more to gain by talking about abortion than by acting on it?

      Yeah I doubt they will outright overturn it. They will just uphold all the ridiculous laws that red states implement which will make abortion nearly impossible to access which will work as effectively banning it. It's a tool of the gop to get the evangelical vote more than anything.

      I'm much more worried about the labor rights and environmental protections they will strip away. They have actual monetary motivation to do those things. Nobody is going to get richer by overturning Roe v Wade.

      Overturning roe v wade would be killing the goose laying golden eggs.
