She would but her husband is cowering in her safe space where she consigned him when Harris lost the election.

Typical MAGA hate....you all don't like when democrats say anything but spew garbage all over the place. Keep America "great" with your treasonous rapist.

No need for your hatred in America. Please leave us.

\
Sorry but you don't get the right to tell us to leave. You don't like us..than you leave.

Are yo still here? Go.

You first. I love America too much to leave. Sorry maga! Cry harder

But don't you want to go to a white European country with socialized medicine, six months of maternity leave, six weeks of vacation.

Stop telling me to leave. I AM AMERICAN AND I AM NOT LEAVING.

Tell your son that you are proud of him. Proud that he can think for himself - despite pressure from academia and entertainment industry. Proud that he can spot and reject racism (DEI).

Over the holidays it might be nice to listen to your son and ask why he is a Trump supporter. The reasons should make you proud as well.

no advice, op but, I would be very disappointed. I would ask him to not discuss politics when around you and unfortunately I wouldn't want to be around him much.. Considering he has zero sympathy for women in this country and how are rights have been eroded

Oh look. A single, childless cat lady has joined the conversation.

Still trying to sort out why the childless cat ladies are concerned about access to abortions.

Maybe childless cat ladies are be concerned about abortion rights because they want to remain childless.
It's not like their bits and pieces stop working when they get a cat.

Tell us why men care about abortion at all? At least childless cat ladies can get pregnant. We all know why Maga men care about abortion. It is about controlling women and they don't care about babies or children.

If you truly are incapable of understanding why men would value the life of the unborn then you are too dumb to vote. It’s one thing to disagree, another to claim you truly don’t understand the issue in the first place and vilify people for your lack of understanding.

Babe, no one is buying that from the “your body my choice” brigade. The “pro life” people have shown their ass and it’s disgusting.
Good for the forced birthers that they found a bs talking point to sell with Trump as a candidate, but this forum is full of educated and engaged posters. Most of us are well aware of the different ways Trump (really just the troglodytes he is sweeping in) can and will ban abortion nationally. They will attack the medications, tools, and persons needed to get care. It’s going to be a big surprise ( to MAGA MORONS) when women can’t even get reproductive care in a blue state like all the voters were promised. They had planned to just take their daughters out of state if needed. Oh well.
But will anyone notice? Will tik tok tell them that Trump is only keeping the promises he made to billionaires and getting revenge for his personal grievances?
I doubt it.

No one is reading this delusional “forced birther” nonsense. The only demographic the Dems aren’t losing ground with are unhappy, unmarried UMC women, most of whom are doped up on SIRI cocktails. You are increasingly all alone and screaming into a void.

What an insane response? You say that because the son supports Trump he has no sympathy for women. The current administration has been a disaster on every issue, all of which impact women: economy, border security, crime, national security, energy independence. The list goes on. Biden hasn’t been seen in six months and when he was seen, he couldn’t make it on/off a stage without assistance. His VP couldn’t answer a simple question and after blowing $1.5 billion in her campaign, clearly demonstrated that she can’t even manage a budget for a state government.

There is no “my body your choice” brigade. Randos on the internet are not the majority and you know it. If you don’t understand pro life positions, then do some reading and educate yourself because it isn’t a complicated point of view to grasp even if you disagree with it. You can shove your Trump tik tok screed because it’s completely irrelevant to my point.

Seriously. Support among women dropped for Harris to a ten point gap. She performed worse than Hillary and Biden even after Roe was struck down. Stop telling yourself people believe this “forced birther” hysteria or keep losing elections.

Like I said. Trump and the Heritage foundation found a really workable bs talking point to lie to the willfully ignorant.
The people posting here are well educated and watching the court dockets. The strategy to make reproductive healthcare inaccessible across the entire country is already underway.
Abortion being a states rights issue was just another lie MAGA gulped down. OP’s son’s prospects are worse after his vote for Trump.
I’d feel pity, but I’m tired of caring about idiots.

Oh come on! Your side loves RANDOS on the internet and paint every elected democrat with a brush tarred by anonymous internet sensationalism at every chance. You love squawking about your cousin’s neighbor , who knew a guy, that didn’t get his promotion because of DEI.
Of course when it’s the campus fraternity barfing out “ your body my choice” and the conservative social media manosphere chuckling and winking along…. Well that’s just everyone’s imagination, and why can’t libs take a joke?
Oh well. I guess Op’s son and the boys just like him will continue to fall further behind, and American women will have a smaller pool of acceptable mates to choose from. Bummer.

Sugar, the United States had the best post pandemic economy on the planet. Lowest inflation and envy of the world.
We are producing more energy than ever and have never been so energy independent. Crime is down across the country. Our national security is finally shaping up - a weakened Russia, weakened Iran, North Korea has been dragged into Ukraine. toppled Syria. We are out of our endless wars.
Immigration is a total cluster and the Biden White House not addressing it is a real mystery. Not arguing with you on that. But the numbers are down.
It took four years to rebuild.
But OP’s son got his feelings hurt by someone on campus and so now it’s all going to sh—-.
Happy holidays.

Only Maga parents are proud. Maybe you should go over to op's house to tell their son how proud you are?

Does he understand that he knows women that have had abortions? He may not know that he knows them, but he most certainly knows them. Is he really okay with them being as good as common murderers the minute they step over certain state borders?

Does he understand that he knows women that have been raped whether he personally knows this detail or not? Is he really okay with having a rapist in power over them?

If he's never been conned himself, he certainly knows people that have been conned. Is he okay with having a con artist sit in the highest office in the country?

Keep trying.

Honestly, he may know some men that have been raped as well, although that is not as common.

But a cis man can not get pregnant

The poster is talking about getting raped.

Yes? And we are talking about women getting raped and impregnanted by their rapists. Which leads to abortion and the question of access

No, the poster was talking about the experience of not only getting raped but then have to watch a rapist be put into the oval office. That is infuriatingly insulting enough without any pregnancies involved.

I agree with you. My statement is also true

Yes overturning Roe v. Wade is another enormous issue that requires us to teach our children exactly how screwed up that is and what they need to do to fight back.

7 states have constitutional amendment preserving abortion rights. These states include:
Montana
Nevada
Arizona
Colorado
Missouri
New York
Maryland

New York and Maryland is mostly redundant but the other states are significant.

Nebraska passed a constitutional amendment to restrict abortions in the 2nd and 3rd trimesters.

One by one, states are passing laws to protect abortion and at some point a federal law will be passed.

I think they will pass a federal law against aboetion in all 50 states. He has the power to do what he wants.

He is an executive not a legislature and the court made clear this is a state not federal issue. A national ban wouldn’t stand.

I think it will happen. He has the courts in his pockets. He can do anything he wants More women and babies will die.

Frist of all, someone said why do 'childless cat ladies' care about abortion and I was responding to that. Men can't get pregnant nor give birth. I get they care if it is their child but why would they care if a stranger has to have an abortion to save their life? Or is raped at 14? If men had babies it would be a national right to abortion. It has nothing to do about caring for babies but, controlling someone else's body. To the extremes they go...banning safe medication, preventing travel to other states...what about freedom of government interference? Where did that go?

I wouldn't go that far and I would be upset. I would ask him to be respectful while in your house.

But I also would be disappointed.

Op ,can you share how it goes?
