Democrats are facing a tough U.S. Senate map in 2024 so they are eyeing some tough-to-win states for possible pickups, starting with Texas.

    “I still think it would be the right move, but so long as it isn’t the rules for the Dems I am not going to hamstring my base by following it” - some version of what he will say to handwave the hypocricy.

    Going after conservatives for being hypocrites is not a winning strategy. The movement is about social hierarchies and identity politics. It just doesn’t care about hypocrisy in service of the tribe and is totally credulous to any justification, no matter how tenuous.

      I anticipate the hand-waving would actually be “term limits are the best option, but with corrupt pedophiles on the democrats’ side, I have to stay in the game to save America. To save the children.”

      Honestly, I don’t know if there is any logos or ethos argument that could ever away someone completely ruled by pathos.
