Well, howdy there internet people? Let's bow again. So today we are going to talk a little bit more about the Republican Party's future, what it has to do with Ohio, and why I guess I didn't cover it the way a lot of larger outlets did when it comes to

issue one and what happened and why I viewed it the way I did because a couple of

is occurring and this is a really bad thing that what happened in Ohio is really bad for the GOP

because it shows that Americans are really, really just very much in favor of reproductive rights.

And another one was asking, hey,

why didn't you bring this up?

Because I don't think they're connected. It's that simple. Not in the way

that it's being reported in a lot of places. But it's also one of those no but

also yes things. To me you can't draw a a causative relationship between

reproductive rights and what happened in Ohio because on its own even without the reproductive rights issue

right around the corner, the proposal in Ohio was that bad. So I don't think that you can necessarily make that

jump. Did it have to do with some of it? Absolutely. How much? I have no way to

gauge that.

So I can't say that it's connected on the level that it's being reported at.

I just can't use Ohio for that.

That being said, they're also not wrong. This is definitely

going to factor in to 2024 when it comes to the GOP and then definitely having some surprises.

Because while I don't believe that you can count Ohio,

I do think that you can count what happened in Kansas in Vermont and Montana and Michigan and
