Senate Republicans on Wednesday took a hard look at Tuesday night’s punishing election results in some key battleground states, and they’re not pleased with what they’re seeing.
“Yesterday to me was a complete failure,” said Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina.
Republicans were handed a string of rebukes, from red-state Kentucky’s projected move to reelect Democratic Gov. Andy Beshear to Virginia projected to elect Democratic majorities in both chambers of its state Legislature, likely thwarting GOP Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s election promise to enact a 15-week abortion ban.
I can sympathize with that attitude though. Sometimes in order to get anything you want you have to compromise your morals. I morally align more with the greens on most issues, but I vote democrat holding my tongue where needed because some is better than none.
They believe it’s immoral to allow people to have abortions, but it’s now clear they’re not going to succeed at stopping it, so instead they’re going to focus on the other people they believe it’s immoral not to hurt.
