Mississippi Governor implicated in multiple fraud schemes, but still holds on. The state gets what it deserves.

Freakanomics did a story on this. Not sure if it was debunked but it certainly made sense when I read it.Didn’t there used to be lots of arguments supporting a decrease in crime once abortion became legal?

We finally have something we agree on; Pubs have indeed remained in power through fear and anti democratic ideas.They spent 40 years intertwining their belief in their own inner exceptionalism by saying that they were a part of the "silent majority."

Overturning Roe is the worst Republican move in decades. They have no policy about where to move forward and they lost a boogeyman to rile the base up overThe GOP has completely failed on all facets regarding abortion.

Right. Which is a sign they have the right policies but have trouble maintaining a huge tent and overcoming the messaging problem.I don't think they've remained in power "by" ineptitude, but rather "despite"
I think there was an issue with causation and effect given the time between abortion legislation and the responding crime rate drop.
Also hard to isolate the variables in a macro case like this.
