A day after Democrats and abortion rights advocates chalked up a string of electoral victories around the country, GOP presidential candidates on Wednesday night appeared to have learned nothing from their partys losses.

During the third Republican primary debate, moderator Kristen Welker of NBC News asked the five presidential hopefuls how they see their partys path forward on the issue of abortion, given that they keep losing elections over their attacks on womens reproductive rights. Most doubled down on their opposition to abortion, and then made nonsensical claims about Democrats advocating for no restrictions on abortion in any scenario.

The moderators did nothing to call them out for it, either.

Lets just be clear, said Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. The Democrats have taken a position they will not identify the point at which there should be any protection, all the way up until birth. That is wrong and we cannot stand for that.

I am 100% pro-life ... I would certainly, as president of the United States, have a 15-week national limit, said Sen. Tim Scott (S.C.). I would not allow California, Illinois or New York to have abortion up until the day of birth.

Scott went on to say he thinks its unethical and immoral to allow for abortions up until the day of birth, which, to be clear, is not something that anybody is calling for, anywhere.

We have the opportunity to stop that reckless behavior, Scott vowed.
