GOP "logic":
1. adopt an extreme position on abortion
2. hold that position for years despite it representing fewer and fewer voters. do not care that only a minority still want it, because gawdammit they're not flip-floppers
3. pack the SCOTUS through any means necessary, damn the ethics
4. get SCOTUS to overturn Roe, despite point #2
5. be amazed when the 2022 "red wave" election fails to materialize, and watch the opposition prez do better in the midterms than any other in 60 years? more?
5. the kicker: with their new razor-thin majority, ensure that one of the first bills past is a
‘born alive’ abortion bill (that is unnecessary since it's already illegal to not save a baby born alive following an abortion)
RECAP: GOP was punished for a thing, so at the first opportunity they loudly signal their support for that thing. got it.
