I'm interested in lower taxes, lower crime, a secure border, girls being able to have sports on an equal playing field, and things like respect for the American flag and military service. I'm very against terrorism, including Hamas, and I'm in favor of Israel being able to exist. The democrats offer me abortions. Lots of abortions, with greater access to abortions. It's a grim vision for the women of America.


Well said. This sums it up for me too. Democrats thinking that all I care about is abortion is insulting. Especially when they actively deny my existence as a woman in so many other cases.


They asked what you care about and you answered. Trump will likely lose and the abortion ban issue will be a large contribution to his loss. But abortion bans and all the related problems they cause is not important to you for some reason and that is that.


No Trump will not likely lose. Unless you’re trying to tell us the fix is in and you know something we don’t?


He lost the EC last time around and the popular vote by almost 10 percent. He has done more to drive away voters than attract new voters. Many elections since 2020 have seen his endorsed candidates fail and his anti roe policies fail as well. But if your analysis of that that leads you to see him winning then ok I guess.


You might want to take a look at the consistency of the polls again, especially in the battleground states.


You might want to look at actual recent elections.


I’m sure it’s comforting for you to think that.


What does comforting have to do with it? The elections results don't match the polling. It is what it is. I don't know why but that is what has happened many times.


The 2022 election was a “banner year” for polling according to 538, so again, you’re posts are not accurate.

It’s not a one person loses or another person wins scenario, but it feels that way sometimes when we have limited attention and resources. And I get shut down when I say “what about me?”

I feel like traditional feminism is not popular. There is nothing wrong w JK Rawling’s positions . She was abused, she was divorced, she also struggled in this unfair, anti women world. She was a single mom. She earned a right to her opinion. Why did everyone jump all over her?


Everyone did not jump all over her. Some disagreed and some agreed.


She got and still gets a nearly endless stream of graphic rape and death threats from trans activists.

Ironically that response really just shows that she’s right to worry about violence against women and the importance of the preservation of single-sex spaces.



Abuse on anonymous chat forums is cheap and cowardly and scary. Why do so many women and men that are sexually assaulted never report?

Ugly behavior comes out when you don't have to reveal your identity. Why do racist thugs often wear hoods when the strut around with their torches? What's wrong folks...why can't we see who you are?


How often do you see racist thugs holding torches?


I never have.

However I have seen plenty of terrorist wearing masks and keffiyeh in recent month. Why are terrorist wearing masks outside?

You can’t have it both ways Kamala. Either Dems are the party of WOMEN because they will always protect a WOMAN’S right to abort her own child up until the moment of birth- but then they aren’t exactly the party of WOMEN because if your daughter happens to survive her abortion, she’s no longer a WOMAN on the sports field, or if she’d prefer not to share a public bathroom with men.


You are utterly unhinged, like MTG unhinged.


But correct.

Nobody is aborting their child up until the moment of birth. Late-term abortions are tragic cases where a woman intended to have a baby, only to learn it would not be viable. I would recommend you read some of their stories - they are heartbreaking.


Stop lying. There was a story in the Washington Post about a young woman that was actively looking to abort her healthy 34 week old fetus because she decided she couldn't handle being a mother.

Luckily laws prevented that and the health child is now adopted by a family.

So no, not all abortions in the last trimester are tragic, some are elective. And if this woman had her way should have killed a viable fetus just for convenience. Stop lying.

Sorry. You’re actively supporting the party that wants to erase women’s rights entirely. You are not a feminist.


And you are supporting the party that wants to erase women entirely. You are not a feminist either.

+100. One party wants to take away my right to decide my fate if I get pregnant. The other party wants to erase me entirely so men can steal my identity. Two awful choices, but erasing me in every aspect of life is worse. Dems can get bent.

This is nonsense. Acknowledging trans people isn’t “erasing” women.


It depends. If we are allowed to acknowledge that trans people have a biological sex that is different from the sex they would prefer, that isn't in conflict. If we are required to say, in polite society, that trans women are women, with no distinction at all from biological women, that is an issue for many people. And of course, if it is taken a step further and claimed that suggesting that sex is an immutable characteristic is criminal hate speech, that is a serious step toward the suppression of free speech, science, and religion in favor of state dogma.

The Democratic Party claims none of the bolded. Referring to trans women as women doesn’t mean you can’t acknowledge that they’re trans. It just means you shouldn’t call them men. I’m sure you understand the difference. And there is no Democratic policy in place to “criminalize” speech about sex as a biological characteristic. Some people have a gender that is different from their sex. That’s all.

NP. I will always refer to a man as a man and a woman as a woman. That’s a statement of fact. However the man and woman in question feel about that is between them and
their therapists. You will not force us to lie and then call it kindness.


Men are men because of their sex, not their gender.

IDGAF about your made-up religious concept. Sex is material reality. Whatever a man claims to believe he is in his head is an unverifiable, unfalsifiable, self-serving claim and, as such,
is entitled to zero deference.


That is one opinion on the matter. Not the only one.


Sexual reproduction is not a matter of opinion. Most people who have critical thinking skills believe that biology is real.

Nobody is aborting their child up until the moment of birth. Late-term abortions are tragic cases where a woman intended to have a baby, only to learn it would not be viable. I would recommend you read some of their stories - they are heartbreaking.


some dude wrote that comment, guaranteed. women KNOW there are hardly any late term abortions.


They are rare, but its simply factually incorrect that all late term abortion are for medical reasons, and that’s very clear in published reports.


Find some better talking points than fictional late term abortions and scary trans people. These are not working for the GOP


Facts aren’t taking points, even if they contradict your erroneous posts, and the GOP is doing just fine, or perhaps you haven’t seen the current polls?


The GOP is doing just fine?

They have underperformed every election after 2016.
Their fundraising compared to the Dems is anemic, and that which fundraising they have is mostly going to Trump's legal fees, not the elections, but if that is fine in your book, then great. it is great with me as well.


We control the house, most state governorships and the Supreme Court, and our nominee is ahead in the polls and specifically in the state polls that matter. So yeah, sounds like we are both happy.


You have the Supreme Court because of two presidents who did not win the popular vote. Gerrymandering is why you have the House.

“Men cannot become women.”

This.

And no, the people I see posting social media screeds that ‘trans women are women’ are middle aged women in the community, not anonymous Russian bots.
