There's no evidence provided in that thread that Republicans want to "ban" contraception nationally. |
He's cobbling together a coalition of moderates? Where? How? The junior Senator from Maryland is just going to up and run things? I can't tell if people posting this sort of thing have their heads in the sand or are Hogan shills. The question Hogan ought to be asked is if he would have voted to convict Trump in his second impeachment trial after January 6th. I'll bet anyone a million bucks that Hogan will hem and haw and refuse to answer the question. If you have your head in the sand I formally invite you to remove it and face reality. All sorts of things we were told we were hysterical about and would never happen are happening. I am frankly not willing to try my luck. |
They're Hogan shills. |
Because that's the real issue! What someone said on DCUM! Not the threat that people will lose their right to contraception. |
Also can we talk about the case currently in front of the Supreme Court where states can ban hospitals from.providing abortion care even when it is necessary to save the life of the woman? How is that not terrifying enough for people already? |
And what does that have to do with either a Democrat or Republican serving the state of Maryland in the Senate? There is already a 6-3 Republican majority and the Democrats did that. If they want to preserve those 3 seats, instead of scare mongering about Hogan why not address the elephant in the room? There is another Democratic appointee on the court who is desperately ill but refuses to step down when a Democrat is President and there is a Democratic majority in the Senate. And how about also addressing the other elephant in the room? Democrats massive spending in the ARP has contributed to the out of control inflation that’s putting a Democratic Senate majority and Biden’s reelection at risk. But somehow voting for an obviously lightweight Democrat for Senate over a proven leader for the state is what we should focus on? Sorry, that’s a bait and switch that I could care less for. I’m voting for the best candidate for Maryland. |
So women dying just isn't a concern? The idea that it's somehow Democrats fault the Supreme Court is gutting women's rights is a very strange way to interpret that. The inflation being blamed on Biden and the Democrats counters all reasonable evidence. First Trump created those issues pre COVID with his tarrifs tax cuts, and very low interest rates. So when COVID hit, things were already primed for inflation and thr government had fewer tools (like rate cuts) to address the issues. The US is also out performing every other Western nation on inflation so the idea that somehow the Democrats are at fault for a.worldwide phenomenon that we're actually doing better than peer nations on makes no sense. Trump has threatened absolute financial chaos. Want runaway inflation? His crazy tariffs and insisting he sets rate cuts would set off a runaway train. |
Keep up with that thread of conversation. The coalition that is going to elect Hogan to this seat is Maryland’s moderate voters that you and the other shills on this thread seem to be happy to alienate. I don’t know who you’re shills for, but your approach is seriously deficient. |
The court is already 6-3 thanks to RBGs ego. What contribution would Hogan make to that that would be worse than Sotomayor refusing to step down before she dies? |
+1 If Trump wins and Maryland sends Larry Hogan to the Senate, just losing 1 liberal justice would give conservatives a 7-2 advantage. It’s not hyperbole to say that it would probably take Democrats 50-100 years (!) at that point to get to a Supreme Court majority. |
The only way that it would go from 6-3 to 7-2 is if the Sotomayor doesn’t do the right thing. Go after her. |
I don’t know anything about Sotomayor’s health, but if it is as bad as you say then yes she should retire ASAP. I agree that RBG’s decision not to retire in 2013 was catastrophic. |
He will not win. |
How do you know? |
It’s going to be hilarious to see the Moco partisans have conniption fits when there’s Senator Trone representing Maryland. In fact, the reason they are all supporting Alsobrooks is a bit strategic because they know she’s going to lose to Trone and that Trone will lose to Hogan. So they plan to blame the loss on Trone “buying” the primary despite the fact that obviously Alsobrooks would lose in the general even worse. Maryland is absolutely synonymous with craven politicians. |
