The midterm election, or the success or failure for their respective opponents, hinges on two remarkable pillars: Is the momentum of those appalled by the de facto elimination of Roe v.

And: do the latter's fairy tales about the "global elites," which would be in the process of taking over America with their "socialist" climate policies, catch on? In addition, there is an almost proverbial "charity begins at home" attitude, which sometimes lacks even the slightest beginnings of foresight.
