This is such belittling BS. When we met, my husband was pro-choice. I’m the one who changed his views. For the life me, I can’t understand how some pro-choices fail to see how people have honest, moral objections to abortion. |
Some of what you say may be true and if the GOP had nominated a candidate like they used to nominate pre-2016, they'd likely win this election in a landslide. This being said; they nominated a guy who had the job previously and then abandoned his role as Commander-in-Chief for hours during the one big time national security threat we had during his 1st term. A POTUS takes the oath of office with an understanding that protecting our country and our people is their number one priority. How can any sensible person vote for someone to fill this role again when they failed to act in the most dire moment of their 1st term? A candidate that has shown the entire world that they don't have the integrity or courage to protect America in our most challenging moments is not a viable POTUS candidate any true American will be voting for. Find a candidate with that courage and integrity and then we can talk policy. |
And in case anyone cares, I am a white woman, with a graduate degree in my 40’s and an atheist. |
Of course they understand why a person might object to abortion. That is why they are pro-choice. that position allows for people against abortion to choose not have an abortion and for people that have a different view to make their own decision. The pro-choice position has complete respect for for the decisions each individual makes about their own reproductive life |
| Kamala Harris begs voters for support in a deli in Pennsylvania. Black women tell her they are voting for Trump! |
Yeh sounds great a murderer may understand why people want to live. Get over abortion it's not needed for birth control anymore and trump has already stated rape, incest and life of the mother. |

You get to make this decision for your own uterus. Get over the fact that you do not get to involve yourself in this decision for other people. |
Plus one Thanks for nothing electoral college |
Whether a baby is aborted or not doesn't matter if you have a POTUS that refuses to protect our country and our people when there is an attack on our soil. I can agree with some of Trump's policies but no way I can get over the fact that he cowered in a corner of The White House for hours the one time we needed him to stand up and be brave as Commander-in-Chief. With regards to Trump and his bid for a second term, every other issue pales in comparison to his lack of integrity and courage in that very big moment when he had the job previously. |
What an absurd argument. I don’t like Kamala either. It’s a binary choice. Either way, I’m not voting for a person because I like that person. I’m voting over the policies I most align with. |
The dripping condescension shown above is one reason I am not a liberal. |
He is unfit and should and will lose. |
I am going to have to copy this and save it somewhere -- to roll out on election night as Exhibit A as to why Trump won. Is this really how deeply buried some people have their heads in the sand, when it comes to inflation? Is this this really how Harris voters think an economy works? I just took the day off work to run several errands. One stop was to a cobbler to have some shoes resoled. Another was to a clockmaker to drop off a wristwatch to be cleaned and oiled. And then I had an appointment for a mason to come by the house and replace some grout that has cracked and fallen out of the stonework on the house, before winter hits with freezing rain. And I probably shared the streets with several hundred truck drivers, delivering loads of food and fuel and other goods. These kind of tradespeople are the foundation of our economy and represent the majority of workers in a healthy economy. Oh, and the final errand was to the grocery store. I try to cook most everything from scratch for the family, and I like King Arthur flour. A 4# bag that was $4.99 in 2018 is now even higher today -- up from $6.49 this summer to $6.99 now. Eggs, orange juice, vegetables, etc. are all up a similar percent from 2018. Does the poster above really think the cobbler, horologist or stonemason "didn't make something" of their life? Is that how pathetic this person's worldview is? What about the person working at a flour mill. Are they also a loser? Does this poster above think that everyone in a country can get a PhD and then 100% of the economy simply magically makes lots of money, and everyone lives well without anyone actually producing goods or services? |
Anyone that cares about the economy from PhD holders on down should avoid voting for Trump. He is a senile old fool that will destroy this country's economy and everything else. |
