I never watched Chris Matthews again after he called Hillbilly Elegy "a great book"

 THIS IS VANCE EXCUSING THE REPUBLICANS FOR THE OHIO ELECTION. DID IT EVER OCCUR TO HIM THAT MOST VOTERS REALLY REALLY DISLIKED THE REVERSAL OF ROE VS WADE? THEY JUST KEEP TRYING TO THINK HOW TO TRICK PEOPLE INTO VOTING FOR SOMETHING THEY DON'T WANT.

“It’s depressing,” Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) said of the election result in his home state. “It suggests that the pro-life movement, we need to figure out how to actually win because clearly there’s something that’s broken down between what we’re saying and what voters actually believe. We’ve got to figure out how to close that gap.”

“For pro lifers, last night was a gut punch. No sugar coating it,” he also wrote on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter.

Vance noted that a lot of people who didn’t like the way the ballot proposition was drafted still voted for it because they really didn’t like the six-week abortion ban that Republican Gov. Mike DeWine (Ohio) signed into law in 2019.

He said “suburban voters really turned out” while “a lot of rural voters, a lot of exurban voters didn’t turn out,” which he said is often true of off-year elections.

“We just lost a lot of self-identified Republicans and that’s a way to lose an election,” he said.
