I don’t think I’ve ever said a reasonable compromise isn’t “possible”.


But it is not possible with today’s Republican Party. They cannot be trusted. I do not believe my compromise would be accepted by repubs. Repubs like Paxton who even defy courts. Repubs in Ohio who vow to continue trying to institute the ban rejected by its voters. Voters by a very significant margin rejected putting it in the hands of the state. In a very red state. That don’t make no never mind in Trumpistan! You can say the majority of voters agree with you. Like you can say the sky is purple. But the next actual electoral result in any state will be your first reliable indication of it.

Reasonable compromise is possible. After we rid the repub party of speakers of the house who favor a Christian theocracy, and AGs who will defy courts to ensure a woman risks being childless, or force child-rape victims to deliver, then, sure, we might find compromise. And even maybe a few more voters in states like Kansas and Ohio who trust repub restrictions enough…to only reject them by a single digit margin.
