   JD Vance showing his true colors

   Ron Filipkowski:

   JD #Vance says women who haven’t given birth like Kamala #Harris are “childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives,” and have “no direct stake” in America.

     GOP social policy, if one exists, is self-defeating. Their sole goal is power for the rich and stopping social mobility for everyone else.

     Instead the GOP is funded by billionaires to increase precarity.

     The GOP also killed off their margin of victory during their covid debacle

     The Republican credo:
     "The weak are meat, and the strong do eat."

     It's a "Might Makes Right" ideology of selfishness.

     Republicans appeal to an ever smaller demographic: wealthy white men

     What is so odd is that if the GOP hadn't fostered austerity policies to immiserate the post-boomer generations, they'd have more wealthy white men to vote GÒP.

     @LazaroDTormes some mothers envy her, believe me. And also mothers want to have a choice, if they want more kids or not. Abortion rights, Medicare for women, women's, LGBT's and minorities rights are the weekest points of the REPs. And poor people. Reps see the poor as weak.
     All where Harris can go full in and collect voters. @GottaLaff

     Vance is talking to mothers, in the hopes that many of them are conservative, and telling them: Kamala #Harris is different from you. She doesn't have your values.

     They are scared they will lose women voters and trying to shepherd in their own.
