      I think the thread here is that maybe they care about abortion, or maybe they don’t, but they very much care about winning power through elections.

      And they know they’ve been on the loser side of the abortion issue. They’re ready to drop it and move on.

      I’m not totally sure on the far right, but republican voters, particularly women, generally still want abortion rights protected. It’s why so many elections have been favorable to democrats lately. I’m not sure why the hell republican politicians still do things like they do with abortion and weed, for example, that Republicans generally are in favor of.

          I’ve seen some realize their mistake, but yeah I think you’re right that a lot of the MAGAs don’t really care. That said, a good number probably decided to just stay home if I had to guess. I haven’t seen any data though.
