The last thing Kamala needs to do is run on Roe v Wade and “saving democracy from Trump”. She was unelected and didn’t face a primary . That’s not democracy

Why I'm voting for Harris:
1. Harris is fit to be president and not in cognitive decline
2. Harris doesn't incite hate crimes against immigrants and BIPOC
3. No chance Harris will direct the FDA to remove authorization for abortion pills which are critical to women's health. Trump will face a lot of pressure to do this.
3. She supports tax breaks for the middle class, not tax breaks that primarily benefit wealthy people
4. Her background in law enforcement means she actually understands the law and policing and can push for reforms that make sense and not just be reactive to progressive activists

The Dems are going to regret handing Harris the nomination so quickly. I'm a Dem and I'm i
Pissed. I'm insulted that the machine assumes it can just plug and play some other candidate and us Dems will just fall in line. Harris is not the right candidate. I'm staying home in November.

Most Americans believe that abortion should sometimes be illegal and sometimes be legal. Most think it is sometimes immoral, and sometimes acceptable.

But here’s the thing: Most Americans also agree with the substance of the Republicans’ 2022 “national abortion ban,” according to the latest Gallup Poll.

Gallup’s writers chose to tout the post-Dobbs shift in favor of abortion in this poll, but even after this shift, here’s a telling fact: only 37% of Americans believe that abortion should be legal in the second trimester, while 55% say it should be illegal.

Lindsey Graham’s proposed “national abortion ban” kicked in at 15 weeks. The poll asked about the “second three months of pregnancy,” which begins in the 13th week.

Again, this isn’t new. Gallup has always found that a majority believe second-trimester abortions should be illegal.

So why would the public turn against the GOP for advancing a bill to ban second-trimester abortion when the public — by a nearly 20-point margin — thinks second-trimester abortions should be illegal? Again, it was spun by the Democrats and the national news media.

“National abortion ban” sounds like a total abortion ban. And the left-leaning major news media, where more than 90% of reporters and editors are far left on abortion, generally adopted the Democrats’ spin.

Check out this CNN story. It simply adopts the Democrats’ poll-tested wording in the headline, and makes you read until paragraph 11 to learn that the ban only kicked in when the baby was 15 weeks in gestation.

Most Americans are not where the pro-life movement is, believing that the government has a duty to protect human life, even in its earliest stages. But most Americans are where congressional Republicans are: wanting to ban abortion after the first trimester.

That generation loves a good meme and Harris is apparently a big hit in that regard.

Good. Get the youth vote out!

55% of white women voted for Trump in 2016. He’s good.

And he only pulled 42% in 2020. He ain't got this.

And that was before Dobbs

You realize that millions of women agree with Dobbs, right?

You'd think that the GOP would actually want to run on it, then. Instead, they're hiding from it and lying. But if you think it's a winning issue, it's something to get excited about this Fall I suppose.

You can read her website since you clearly have internet access. But to sum up why I’ll be voting for her— she’s running on protecting my right and the rights of my daughters and nieces to access healthcare and not bleed to death in bathrooms or land in the ICU because we’ve been denied basic care.

How is she going to do that? It's a state-by-state basis after Dobbs, and she as president will have no control over the states that have stripped the rights of your daughters and nieces. She isn't Congress and the president isn't a monarch. What is she going to do? The rights are already stripped - Democrats whom I voted for let that happened when they refused to codify Roe.

It's a serious question. How is she going to do that?

We’re hoping that Thomas and Alito kick the bucket so she can appoint new SCOTUS and change the balance again.

Her platform is “hope two people die while my party controls the Senate”?

You can’t be serious.

And, again, as someone who votes for Dems…the conservatives are smart enough to time their justices’ retirements. Unlike RBG.

Seriously, for the party of constitutional democracy, pushing through this nominee without an open convention and then making a bunch of empty promises that cannot materialize under the constitution, this is sending quite the message.

If you want moderates to stay home in November, this is a great way to do it.

Like I’ve said, you’ve got the internet, read her website.

For me, for my husband, for every parent of a daughter I know, it would be sufficient to vote against Trump to protect our bodies and our children. You want more? Start reading.

Protect from what? Look at the state of this country and the world after 4 years of democrats running things.

Millions of women agree with Dobbs.

Many millions more do not. That’s why when it’s been put up to a vote, abortion rights have won on the ballot initiatives.

Even in deep red states. Because women want to make medical decisions with their doctors, not their rapists.

The Dems don’t know how to read the room. They can’t fathom that most Americans agree that federal dollars shouldn’t fund abortion and abortion should be left to the states and banned after the first few months.

The Dems are crazy and think most of the country agrees abortion should be federal law and made legal even to the 9th month if need be. Most Americans do not agree with the Democrats about abortion at all

Is that why Rs keep losing on this issue? Kentucky, Wisconsin, etc. Dems are kicking Rs azz on this issue.

When was it required that woman HAD to have kids. Every single black woman who ascends are told that they were DEI hires. Ketanji Brown Jackson, a judge who had more experience than any other justice when they joined the court was completely disrespected. She has turned out to be amazing.

For all those who thought that black men were moving to Trump, the Rs couldn't help help themselves but to be horrible which is why 54,000 black men were on a call last night in support. They don't even like her, but Rs went after her.

I thought the zoom call only supported 40K?

The women’s call Sunday night ended up with 44K. Not sure about the men’s.

There was a black men's call on zoom, too?

Yup. “After a Sunday night organizing call led by Black women had record attendance and fund-raising, a group of Black men organized a similar call on Monday evening. More than 40,000 attended and raised roughly $1.3 million for Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign, according to organizers of the group, Win With Black Men.”

Actually 54,000 men participated.

Yes, last night. Basil Smikle was taking about it on MSNBC last night.
