Republicans are really struggling winning over women voters, especially while they are trying to take away the women's rights. So the GOP is focusing on how to tweak the message instead of losing their anti-woman policy. They think that it will all be better if they pretend to be more sympathetic or try to make losing their rights more appealing and definitely losing that whole "rape and incest thing."
The Daily Show team even looks at what if it suddenly became more personal to a Republican man, but it doesn't even appear to help either.
“No Virginia governor has come into office with a deeper dealmaking background than Glenn Youngkin, who as former co-chief executive of the Carlyle Group made a fortune acquiring and merging companies around the globe,” the Washington Post reports.
“But as the Republican chief executive of a purple state, Youngkin has struggled to translate that business acumen into political success — or even economic development success, with the demise Wednesday of his much-touted plan to bring the Washington Wizards and Capitals to Alexandria.”
“While Youngkin and his group of financial experts had negotiated with team owner Ted Leonsis to cut what the governor called ‘the single largest economic development deal in Virginia’s history,’ the governor was never able to work the same magic with members of the General Assembly who had to sign off on the $2 billion project.”
In a 2020 interview with CNN, Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde of the Episcopal Diocese of Washington criticized the manner of President Donald Trump's visit to St. John's Episcopal Church amid protests over the death of George Floyd.

LONDON, Ohio — Within 24 hours of buying his red Ford Mustang Mach-E, Liam Sawyer set off on a camping trip.
Sawyer, who bought the electric SUV “because I think the technology is cool and the range is just long enough,” searched ahead of time for convenient charging stations between his home in Indianapolis and Allegheny National Forest in western Pennsylvania.
About 175 miles (282 kilometers) into his journey, he stopped at a new public charging station at the Pilot Travel Center along Interstate 70 outside Columbus, Ohio.
NEW YORK — When No Labels’ critics got the loudest, it was Joe Lieberman who came to the group’s defense.
The former Connecticut senator was a founding chairman of the centrist organization that focused, above all, on promoting bipartisanship in national politics. Despite its benign stated mission, No Labels inflamed many people across politics by working to recruit a third-party presidential candidate that some fear might tilt the 2024 election in Donald Trump’s favor.
At almost every major turn, Lieberman served as the group’s chief public defender.
