Desperate Biden to play abortion card before mid-terms

 Red States:

...

“Yes — critics point out he could do this now if all Dems were on board,” O’Keefe noted in a short Twitter thread. “And yes, also notable he would make abortion rights his first legislative priority when polls show voters are most concerned with the economy and inflation.”

Why would Biden do this? No doubt to shore up his base at a time when Democrats are panicking and are signaling they know it’s going to be bad but hopefully not as bad as it was predicted to be before the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade back in June.

Except abortion was already going to be *the* primary motivator for the hardcore Democratic base. The voters Biden has to worry about losing here ahead of the midterms are independent voters and even some middle-of-the-road Democratic women voters who have repeatedly sent strong signals in recent weeks that their priorities are kitchen-table issues that impact their families, not abortion.

In other words, as the “Joe Biden/Democrats are on the comeback trail after abortion ruling” media narrative crumbles, the POTUS will go for broke in shamelessly bribing pro-abortion Democratic voters who were already in his back pocket in an effort to make sure they get out and vote.

Abortion is an important issue to a small fraction of the voters. But it seems to be all the Biden Democrats have at this point.
