These Republicans are drowning in denial

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

When people cast their votes, it’s about how they see this country and how they want their leaders to lead. And it’s no coincidence that Democrats have been winning so much. That’s because voters see that the democratic party stands for women, minorities, youth, and for the LGBTQ community. We stand for America as a whole. The democratic party is about “how will we make this country a better place.”

Republicans, on the other hand, want to make the country a worse place, want to hammer their points home, want to take away, not give, and most of all, want to welcome in the staunching and subjugation of freedom.

But since the American people started to turn on Republicans, they’re having difficulty. And this is being noticed, particularly as it pertains to abortion. They don’t know what to say about it.

You see, many Republicans were not serious. They babbled about overturning Roe for years, but they didn’t think it would happen. Now it has. And each Republican is reacting differently, causing a total shit-show as none of them are in lockstep.

Lindsey Graham is demanding a 15-week abortion ban. Mike Pence wants abortion eliminated. Rep. Tony Gonzales of Texas says women must concentrate on “other things.” Republican Nancy Mace said this whole discussion was hurting the republican party.

None of the Republicans can agree on a message. Even Maga is splitting over this. It’s become a real issue for the group because how can they go forward if they do not have a cohesive message on the most critical issue of this generation?

Republican national chair Ronna McDaniel seems to like Lindsey’s idea of the 15-week abortion. But many Republicans disagree with her.

Then there are those Republicans in complete unhinged denial.

Abortion’s not an issue, they declare! Some even said Wisconsin wasn’t about abortion, and it had more to do with the GOP candidate not being likable. Well — he’s not, but his stance on abortion is one reason. You can’t separate the two, Republicans. Candidate quality and abortion denial go hand in hand.

In other words — the GOP is in denial — an enormous woolen blanket of immense denial, and none of them seem to have a clue how to fix the mess they’ve found themselves dealing with.
