Come ON...what woman WOULDN'T want middle aged Republican white men telling them what to do with their bodies?
And if mighty warrior of God Ron wants to tell you what to read and what not to read, who are YOU to CHALLENGE him?
GOD CREATED THE UNIVERSE IN 6 DAYS, took a day off, and CREATED A MIGHTY WARRIOR NAMED RON! Just ask Ron's batshit crazy fundie wife!
Look, I try to be patient with Satanic Commie Radical Leftist Socialists Who Hate America, but...
WHAT PART OF GOD CREATED A MIGHTY WARRIOR NAMED RON DID YOU MISS?
Here is the sad tale of no $$$$ for Ron:

(18,837 posts)They want to win more than anything else. They express "righteous indignation" and go "Hey...four more years of Biden?" And the money tap gets turned back on to "full."

(10,850 posts)And/or indicate he's a winner on the national stage? His donors will flee. All of them. The billionaires support those who can win, not weak sisters.
As for the issues? The money people are more concerned about what affects their wallets, not the issues of the little people. Because ultimately, those issues don't apply to them.
They want someone in the WH to do their own bidding. The rest is just noise.
Winning is everything. And so far? Ronnie is not a contender.

(18,837 posts)...but it's become apparent that once you get past don't say gay / don't be woke / don't have abortions / don't read books, that guy is as dry as Death Valley in August. He's got nothing.

When you're trying to outTrump Trump--with no entertainment value--you're in trouble. The money guys liked good ole Ron bc they believed he was a saner, smarter version of Donnie, would increase their bottom line and could WIN.
However, it turns out the man is just a meaner, far less appealing version of Donald Trump. Plus, the 'base' has not accepted the spin.
I agree Miles--the man's got nothing.
