Republicans Change Tune on Abortion

For years, it was clear that Americans were split on abortion rights. Republicans often stood against it for moral and religious reasons. But now, something surprising is happening. More Republicans are supporting abortion rights in upcoming votes. It seems their "pro-life" stand wasn't as strong as it appeared. This shift shows that real policy preferences might be more important than the old cultural battles. Being "pro-life" used to make them feel morally better without dealing with the real effects of banning abortions. But now, reality is hitting hard. Republican leaders often win by keeping voters focused on identity politics and not on issues that could affect them directly. They make white voters worry about immigrants and supposed insults from liberals, giving a rush without real benefits or harms. The Supreme Court's decision to end Roe v. Wade has woken up Republican women. They are now feeling the direct impact of abortion bans. It's unclear if other GOP supporters will also see how their votes affect them when reality clashes with political fantasies.
