maybe we should agree to only post the link to that thread, instead of engaging with the arguments. It seems like every political thread is about abortion these days, and I’m kind of over it


Then leave the thread. You don’t moderate DCUM.

Joe Biden isn’t running for office. I promise we heard that on CNN.

Please get your guy out there on the trail saying he’s the pro-choice candidate.


Trump says what most Americans believe that he doesn’t like it but sometimes it’s necessary but that doing it in late trimesters or even after birth which Dems want is unacceptable . The Dems want full reproductive freedoms and abortion rights throughout all trimesters made law . Most Americans agree with Trump that’s going too far and also banning abortion or abortion pills entirely nationwide is also too far

Complains about cockiness while supporting Donald Trump 🤪

I don’t care what you or Trump say on behalf of “most Americans”. I vote for MY daughters.


Me too. See you in Roevember!


Once again cockiness from
The Dems . Don’t count your chickens before they hatch

Which of course makes it super surprising that he appointed judges who lied under oath and removed the federal protection of abortion in early trimesters, right?

Get your guy out there telling Kavanaugh he was wrong.


It didn’t remove the federal protection of early trimester abortions. It left it to the states and all the states have exceptions for life of the mother so it’s strange people keep talking about ectopic pregnancies . Something that is rare and isn’t the norm in 99% of pregnancies . Most abortions aren’t for medical necessity

1-2 ectopic pregnancies in every 100 pregnancies is not rare. And women are dying of this in forced birther states everyday. “Exceptions for life of the mother” is a lie.


Especially when you consider that most women I know with two kids also had at least one miscarriage. And it’s 1-2% chance per pregnancy, not per women in her life. 1-2% X3 pregnancies. Is a 5% chance over your reproductive life rare? You okay with a 5% chance it’s your daughter.

Polls are inconsequential. Look at the real numbers of grassroots donations, first time donors and voter registration since yesterday (yes some of those registering could be R but it doesn't make sense with the timeline.) I can say anecdotally I've been making calls for Biden-Harris for a month and yesterday was the first days since Biden's decision not to run. The excitement was incredible and lots of folks signed up to volunteer.

The reason fast food has gone up is because the USDA had to transfer grain for fast food animals due to grocery stores instead due to the global grain shortage and food crisis caused by the war in Ukraine .

Not only was this administration horrific for food prices here but a global food and energy crisis is linked to this disaster of an administration.

Donald Trump couldn’t return fast enough to fix all of these messes

Well the top voting issue for most people is the economy and Trumps economy was better than Bidens. I miss the days when 100 dollars meant a trunk full of groceries not just 2 bags


Your grocery prices have more to do with corporate greed than Biden or Trump.


The grocery prices increased due to the border crisis and war on energy from this crazy administration. A grocery truck isn’t going to run on hydro power and wind . Insane Dems want to get oil and gas cancelled and get meat cancelled as well. Cows are apparently bad for the environment so we need to eat bugs
For protein as well. They want overreach in every part of our lives for no good reason

? It's not from the border crisis. What news stories are you reading?

Inflation was caused by pent up demand (due to pandemic) + stimulus money (started by Trump btw) + supply chain issues from the pandemic.

Four years after covid, we are seeing some of the issues ease.


They opened the floodgates and a huge wave of migrants came in crossing farmland

https://www.agriculturedive.com/news/farm-immigration-border-crossings-food-safety-oped/703265/

Many migrants making their way through the U.S. trespass onto farmland, creating a number of safety concerns and forcing farmers to take on additional costs to protect their operations. Every intrusion must be carefully documented, and farmers have to destroy any crops around areas where illegal trespassing occurred to prevent contamination.

To prevent such intrusions, farmers have purchased expensive fencing to prevent people from entering their fields and technology to increase electronic field monitoring. They’ve also invested in no trespassing signage in English and Spanish, plus dumpsters and bathrooms for immigrants to use to keep the fields safe.

Yuma County Emergency Management, for example, has budgeted $70,000 to lease port-a-potties. At a congressional hearing this year, Arizona farmers and others detailed costs in the tens of thousands to replace fences, pick up litter and install signage.

But fields aren’t the only safety concern. Increased cartel activity along the border has also made it necessary for Yuma farmers to implement additional safety measures and training, with some paying for additional labor to eliminate the danger posed to lone workers. Migrants themselves are also at risk, and could be harmed by large farm equipment or the effects of pesticide or fertilizer application.

This border crisis is costing farmers and ranchers a fortune, as illegal immigrants leave property damage, piles of trash, and damaged crops in their wake. These people must often spend their hard-earned money to secure their farms and ranches from the devastating consequences of Biden's border crisis.

I don’t know a ton about politics, but I think what sets Kamala apart from Hilary is 1) her husband hasn’t already been president for two terms so she’s fresh and 2) Trump really screwed women over with regard to repealing Roe v Wade and women want their rights back.

Yeah, OK.


So this is the prob with most people. Holding office is very different than looking at the results of that experience. You can be put into many situations but if your record shows faults, it's with examining and analyzing to see if it's the person in charge or out of their control issues. In her case, she has a pattern of scary and controversial actions esp as CA AG. I would also not suggest she's been awesome being VP. Just because you can tack on the titles does not mean she's been good doing the work. There's a huge difference in being effective and holding office and serious questions on her performance overall.

Again, you can put a bandaid on it and I get that there's not much else you can do currently than this but let's all not put our heads in the sand and pretend she is the best we have of all time to be POTUS!

I'm a diversity female so I also get how thrilling it is that she's different and exciting but it does not make her better or good. It simply makes her different.

I wish people were less emotional. Yes Trump is terrible but it's so important to not misconstrue a candidate as a better one v different one. Kamala is different but not actually better in all the ways an effective POTUS would be.

I disagreed a lot with Obama esp in foreign policy as a Dem but I respect him as someone truly effective in his time. He had the intellect, character and ability to lead in a way Kamala does not. For me, he's awesome. Not because I agreed with him on everything but because I respected him. I do not respect Kamala. If you've seen her in action, I'm not sure how you disagree!

You are dense. There's never been a presidential election she's been eligible to vote in where a Bush, Clinton or Biden wasn't on the ticket.
1981–Carter-Regan. She was old enough to vote then.
