Republicans, they do love to tank a state and the country. As usual, Democrats come in and clean up the mess Republican's make. Then, because Americans have very short memories, bring the Republicans back and again they mess up stuff, rinse and repeat.

Except for the 7 million who put Biden over the top. They're still out there. Winning women candidates are trending, regardless. And maybe Democratic GOTV is, too.

Republicans should be very worried. Because deep down, they know they've got nothing. NOTHING.

I’m certain we will eventually get back to the place where we were when Roe was in force. God only knows how long it’ll take and how many women will have to die first, again

Well, I mean clearly it's a bad thing for the people who live in Florida, but consider this: for Florida politicians "economic suicide" will achieve many of the same results as immigration and zenophobia, i.e. broken government and a citizenry steeped in political and social grievance. Fertile ground for republican politics. Economic suicide gets there just as surely as white supremacy.
