You know someone is a loser when they win and don't want to talk about it.

The Republicans in congress are really quiet because they know if Roe is over turned, women are going to organize, vote, run for office like never before. I believe young people who usually stay home in the midterms will be motivated to vote. Our base will be motivated to vote.

Add the open hearings on top of that and I believe the Democrats are going to do well in the midterms. The Republicans know this, that's why they don't want to talk about their win.

They started that crap about overturning Roe shortly after it passed. In all that time they’ve never stopped and considered if public opinion had changed. They did the same thing with the ACA except John McCain saved their ass on that one. McConnell saying if they regain Congress they will have a national ban on abortion was a gift for the Dems.

We got them in a catch-22. Brag about it, you’re a sore winner. Don’t talk about it, you’re a sore winner.
