Former Republican Pennsylvania Senator and presidential candidate Rick Santorum has said that Ohio’s vote to back abortion rights and marijuana legalisation shows that “pure democracies are not the way to run a country”.

The rightwing commentator, who was booted from CNN after making disparaging comments about Native Americans, appeared on the far-right network Newsmax on Tuesday night to take part in its election coverage.

People really need to press him on why he wants government interference in reproductive rights.

That’s easy for him, he will simply say that it is murder and everyone agrees that the government can criminalize murder. Any other ethical positions do not matter to him, or republicans, on this point, so it doesn’t matter how stupid you make him look to people from an out group.
