The Herschel Walker nomination was so important because it made clear ... everybody important in the GOP- from top elected officials to online and TV talkers - agrees: abortion restrictions are only for YOU, with exemptions of course reserved for themselves and allies.
Repression seasoned with extreme hypocrisy. That's the Walker message - and because so many important Republicans rallied so intensely to Walker, that message stuck to them as well.
There was early talk that post Roe might be followed by a new era of support for women and children: enhanced nutrition aid in pregnancy, child allowances, etc. Improbable, but wd have opened possibilities. Instead: Walker and "laws for our subjects, exemptions for ourselves"

Conservatives: All Preach, No Practice.
