I’ve never seen a grift given away quite as blatantly as it was by right-wing talk thing Dana Loesch (motto: “I was too fucking crazy for the NRA”). In talking about the revelation that ultra-anti-abortion Republican Senate candidate Herschel Walker, running against incumbent Democrat Raphael Warnock, paid for a girlfriend’s abortion, Loesch started with “What I’m about to say is in no means a contradiction or a compromise of a principle,” which automatically means “I’m throwing my principles out the window faster than a priest at Disney World.” Then she just fucking said it, the thing we all knew was true but that none of them had the guts to just let everyone know: “I am concerned about one thing, and one thing only at this point. So, I don’t care if Herschel Walker paid to abort endangered baby eagles. I want control of the Senate.”
