Hayward Is Belching Nonsense — Again. YAWN.

The level of banal burping — out of the Powerline boys — ever since Tangerine realized JD Vance (not his birth name, BTW — but only MAGA ppl care about such things!) is a boat anchor he’ll have to drag around, if he wants to find new votes… is utterly fascinating.

This afternoon, Hayward tries to tell us that Democrats have a “men” problem (I guess because he personally has never, and will never vote for a woman of color for 1600 Penn.). Or something. [It’s unclear why he’s belly-aching, in truth.]

He seems confused by the notion that Vance is suggesting unmarried women — and those married women without children… ought not be allowed to vote. Uh-huh.

To place it in a perhaps too-charitable frame, Vance’s remarks strike me as akin to the 2012 cycle, when Mitt Romney openly said that he was “not seeking” the vote of 47% of the nation. [Romney meant anyone who was receiving government benefits; JD Vance means to say they shouldn’t be allowed to vote at all.]

In any event, Hayward feels it’s his job to tell us that Republicans report (in self governed polls, no less!) being happier on average, in the last few decades than Democrats.

He attributes this to so many of them being married. My understanding is that he is not married. Divorced — is my understanding. [What a surprise! His pseudoscience is utterly gob-smacking.]

To be sure, this entire line of discussion isn’t worthy of the pixels he wastes on it. But I do want it — for the record, that Republicans like Steve, and Vance… feel women shouldn’t vote. I guess they missed the Susan B. Anthony memo.

Oh well. Good luck with that boys…

Out.
