If our beloved FR needs to hear anything from this well-written piece, it’s:
“There is a despairing, defeatist strain of conservatism that insists that the Left is always winning, that the Left controls everything, that the Right is feckless, powerless, and hopeless. That is a very strange thing to insist on after watching Sam Alito rip up Roe v. Wade, seeing the so-called John Roberts Court dramatically revealed as the Clarence Thomas Court. That rightist defeatism is at odds with the political facts on the ground.”
Yeah, well it’s not like Dobbs is a minor victory, but the 78-2 Rep/Dem lose/ win ratio is nothing to celebrate.
