5. There's no way they can appeal to women at this point.

Getting rid of Roe v Wade is something they can't go back on. They've used it for half a century to get votes, now it's gone, how they can fix that? They'd have to work to reinstate it, and then they can't use it to get out the vote anyway, because they'd be the ones who helped to get it back.

After worshipping a rapist and admitted molester, what have they got to offer women? Protection? After women had died from lack of medical care? After saying they want to monitor women's menstrual cycles?

The Republican party is toast. Maybe they'll split off from the MAGAs and try to go back to being more moderate, a little bit socially conservative, but not gay bashing, woman hating, not racists and bigots.

Even then, I think it will take decades before women trust them again, if it ever happens.
