The one pivot Republicans could make to start winning again

The abortion issue is causing problems for Republican politicians across the country.
Republicans have an abortion problem, and there is only one Party leader who can fix it: Donald Trump.

Let me explain. Like the proverbial dog chasing the bus, the GOP spent years campaigning on the promise to appoint Supreme Court justices who would repeal Roe v. Wade but when finally successful, had no idea how to navigate the resulting political landscape. Democrats have used the reversal of Roe and Republicans’ subsequent anti-abortion initiatives to paint the party as extreme, thereby winning over women and younger voters.

The overturning of Roe handed abortion policy back to the states, where it will stay for the foreseeable future. Our country is so divided on the issue that Congress is unlikely to pass a nationwide law any time soon.

Men like abortion so they can enjoy unprotected sex without fear of financial responsibility.

Politically , is it smart to take a hard line on abortion, if it affects the ability to elect conservatives to office?


Politically , is it smart to take a hard line on *chopping babies into pieces and vacuuming them out in the most violent and painful way**, if it affects the ability to elect conservatives to office?

There, fixed it for you.

If we turn our backs on protecting the lives of babies, we are NOT conservatives. We are amoral evil and no different than the demonic dems. Whats the point then?

Evidence I’ve seen and heard :

1. exit polls suggesting increased support for Democrats because of the abortion issue.

2. talk radio discussions of this subject in which talk show hosts say this happened.

3. Many here, on Free Republic, who criticized Lindsay Graham during the mid-term campaign, when he introduced the idea of a federal ban on abortion. Many people here, on this conservative site, said Lindsay Graham was going too far and that such a position would hurt Republicans.

Most women want infanticide. If you look at history, that is pretty common in non Christian societies.

Men have been told that they can not have an opinion on it. Unless they are trans.

Let me bridge the gap between your tactical assessment and reality.

Democrats own and control ALL of the mechanisms necessary to plan and execute the cheating game. Satan and the DNC aren't giving up that advantage any time soon.

The ONLY way "we" win is with God on our side!

There is NO PATH for "good" to prevail on secular terms.

As long as our culture treats God's greatest creation as disposable, and His rules irrelevant, we're on a path to destruction in this world and the next.

Nope. That issue is a non-negotiable.
