    Hopefully soon. Republicans have been losing big because of abortion, and they’re incapable of controlling the narrative because the lunatics are running the asylum.

    Generational change was happening slowly, and then the Republican conspiracy theories with COVID accelerated it as elderly red voters died who could otherwise lived. Abortion being overturned has lit a fire in young people to actually get to the polls too. Going all in on Trump has also irreparably tainted the party for upper middle class who’d otherwise vote for him.

    I don’t know if the history books will say it was 2020, 2022, 2024, or 2028, but I’m very hopeful that sometime this decade will be when American conservativism is rendered unviable. We just need one more big push.
