Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear has beaten his Republican challenger. Beshear is a blue governor in a red state, and the race saw national politics as a primary issue.

      It’s hard to determine if you are talking about Republicans and states rights, or Biden calling RvW a states rights issue that belongs to the purview of the states.

        Republicans since HW Bush have been saying that it should be a state issue, which is ridiculous. They’ve also said they would overturn Roe. They achieved it and now they reap the whirlwind. The states are turning against them.

          Biden has said RvW is a states rights issue his entire career

            I’ll let him defend a vote he made in 1981, but what I’m talking about is the promises Republicans made to evangelicals to get their votes.

              Which is nothing like the DNC promising to codify for 50 years to get their votes. Abortion is a windfall for red and blue fascists alike.

                  The point is Dems have never had any intention of codifying Roe, only to sell fear porn and make money. They fucked around and we found out.

                    There was never a reason to codify Roe. It’s not everyday the Supreme Court reverses itself after 50 years.
