There's so much happening in politics right now.

So red wine and blue is here to ask, okay, but why?

This is one of the great tricks that I think the sexual revolution pulled on the American populace,

which is this idea that like, well, okay, these marriages were fundamentally, you know, they were,

they were maybe even violent, but certainly they were unhappy. And so getting rid of them and

making it easier for people to shift spouses like they change their underwear, that's going to

make people happier in the long term. And what we have is a lot of very, very real family dysfunction that's making our kids unhappy.

These remarks, delivered by J.D. Vance in 2021, sound extreme. Women should stay in violent marriages.

People are changing spouses like they're changing their underwear. Even though he is the vice president,

it's tempting to dismiss Vance's comments as his own personal baggage. He was raised by his

grandparents, who had a history of violently abusing each other. At one point, his grandma

doused his grandpa in gasoline and lit him on fire.

One might wonder why this didn't inspire JD to support the right to divorce, but hey, we

all deal with trauma differently.

Unfortunately, Vance is not alone in these beliefs.

Extremists across the country, including many in the Trump administration,

are pushing for an end to no-fault divorce. The idea is growing in popularity with conservative

Christian leaders, men's rights groups, and right-wing influencers. Republicans in states like

Texas and South Dakota have already proposed legislation that takes

away the right to divorce for irreconcilable differences. Losing the right to no-fault divorce

seems radical, but after the fall of Roe v. Wade, who knows what rights they'll take from us next?

So why is this a growing movement? And how concerned should we really be? No fault
