In defense of Lindsey Graham.
This was my impromptu response to a comment. I’m copying it here for export, since it’s relevant to the article.
> Lindsey Graham is a weasel.
I know, but I don’t know. McConnell came out against this. My instinct tells me Lindsey Graham threw a lifeline to GOP candidates. There are serious problems under the hood, vis-à-vis enthusiasm and turnout. Democrats are pushing hard on abortion, and leadership was missing in a message to counter it (states rights isn’t that persuasive among moderates).
The idea was to ignore abortion and run on more important (economics, crime, COVID, immigration, etc.) issues, make women choose between those and abortion, but those issues just don’t seem to be that galvanizing. Republicans (especially women) are a forgiving people and they’ve decided they no longer want to live in hate and fear and want to move on. They’ve also gotten arrogant and have decided losing is better than winning if their ideal candidate can’t win. Add to it that Trump, McConnell, and Rick Scott can’t decide who should pay for what. It’s a mess.
When you cant score points on the more important issues you want to score on, you have to at least stop the bleeding on abortion. Lindsey Graham put forth something that might be able to achieve that.
I would rather it have not come to this, but I don’t know if I would fault Lindsey Graham for it. The rest of the GOP wasn’t scoring on the non-abortion topics, and nothing galvanizes conservatives like abortion, so maybe this is the shot in the arm they needed. Additionally, those that want to avoid the abortion fight, now have the incentive they need to push their more important issues forward harder.
So, I don’t know.
Opinion | In Defense of Lindsey Graham
If the Republican Party can’t rally around a 15-week abortion ban, it’s in real trouble.

59.1% support a federal abortion ban beyond 15 weeks, with exceptions.
Abortion isn’t the win they think it is.
Democrats of course love abortions, there’s nothing they love more.
They think what’s most important to you is killing your child, maybe they’re right.

Killing your child is a serious matter, women need more than 15 weeks to decide.

Translation:
Women’s education and training (the first part is about women’s education and training, the first is women’s education and training and the second is the quality of women’s education and training. There is no doubt about the permissibility of learning and teaching, but it is obligatory for women to learn what is obligatory, to do what is obligatory on them, and to learn what is recommended. In this regard, the Messenger of Allah, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “Learning knowledge is obligatory on every Muslim” (Reported by al-Bukhari). It is obligatory for both women and men to learn knowledge. Similarly, the education and training of women existed at the time of the Messenger of God, peace be upon him, and the Messenger of God, peace and blessings of God be upon him, told women about their religious issues. And a narration of Abu Saeed al-Khudri, may God be pleased with him, quoted by Bukhari, says: The women said to the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, that you have kept many people busy and people spend a lot of time with you, so Choose a day for us too, So the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, also chose a day for him, and on that day he used to meet them, advise them, and tell them his orders… Narrated by Al-Bukhari, Hadith No. (101), Chapter: Did Make women have a special day in science?
