You will never win by trying to force morality on people. That is why Republicans MUST try to keep the focus on State Rights vs. Federal Rights. They keep letting the left dictate the argument instead of focusing on the real issue - This is a Republic, NOT a Democracy. That is where the fight is.
Abortion is not an issue the Left really cares about, but it is a great tool/weapon to stir emotions. The left is constantly agitating using one issue or another to shift attention away from what’s really going on and what they are really doing. The agenda the Left wishes to impose on America is not one they want the public to take a close look at, hence the agitation. Getting people stirred up enough about something is all about getting people to vote emotionally. This does away with critical thinking, honest assessment of candidates, and any analysis of the agenda that’s really being pushed.
Abortion is out of the constitution. It’s over
That is why Republicans MUST try to keep the focus on State Rights vs. Federal Rights.

This is a moral issue too. And just like the abortion debate, history has proven that US Citizens have supported a ton of centralized authority. In fact, I’d argue the “states rights” moral argument has been lost to a far greater degree than the abortion debate. Is there any dimension of civic life in which the Federal government hasn’t usurped issues out of the realms states?
I mean they [The Feds] may allow people to decide which counties are wet and which are dry...or how many deer you can kill during hunting season, but on the profound issues...Our country doesn’t have a strong recent history of leaving those to the states. Even the recent Roe vs. Wade decision is an issue that the Feds are licking their chops at a chance to reverse in the future. They won’t give up.
