I completely disagree. Of course, the abortion issue is a major galvanizing issue. One doesn't need to speculate about it. Losing a Constitutional right is serious. It has never happened, and just cause there isn't a precedence for it, it doesn't negate the obvious ramifications. The polls will show that Americans prefer a mainstream approach to constitutional rights & legislation and not extremism. Im surprised that the GOP hasn't been louder in their outcry of their GOP hijacked by extremists

Great admirer of the show and love your interview style. Just one query - isn't the correct word "pundit" with no second 'n'? Looking forward to you taking us through 2024. Trev in NZ.
Marje -
this interview reinforced my disgust with evangelicals.

Molly, you and Rick make a great team.
