Every man with a wife and/or daughter should be worried for them if they love them.

The horse is out of the barn. The laws are passed and SCOTUS has said it’s done.

Asking as a Dem voter: what are the Dems going to actually do? What is the first 100 days plan, here?

Because if the whacko R’s don’t win the top job this election, they will in another cycle.

So what are the Dems actually going to do in the executive and legislative branches to protect what little we have left? I’m not even asking for them to return to Roe. I’m asking how they will govern effectively to protect what’s left, including gay marriage.

Haven’t seen an answer yet.


It all depends on how the House and Senate turn out. If the Dems sweep both, there will be an immediate effort to codify Roe.


Lol . They didn’t certify it before for 50 years . Why would they do so now?


Because until this Court, stare decisis meant something. With hindsight being 20/20– yeah, they should have.

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
it’s adorable, and frankly scary, that you think DT is single handedly fixing all these problems. You know what would fix the fast food problem? Not eating fast food—Americans poor choices. Let’s say DT waves his magic wand and prices go down—you know what goes up? Environmental destruction. GOP policies are hedonistic and ruining life for millions of poor people not just in the U.S. but around the globe. GOP policies are destroying the planet. But hey, you got your big Mac for a dollar less, so that’s all that matters, right? Didn’t matter that the animals were abused and tortured in the process, didn’t matter that the farm and slaughterhouse employees are abused, didn’t matter that the greenhouse gasses are heating the planet etc. All that matters to the GOP is that cheap burger. Unbelievable.

Whether I voted for T is not the issue. You still have run someone I believe in to get my vote. I'm over the first woman, first black, first Asian thing with Kamala. She's a human being and I vote for the human I can get behind. Trump or no Trump.

I want the best person for the job. Anything less is just reverse discrimination. Hillary had so many issues. It's her. Not her as a woman!


I believe this is called “letting the perfect be the enemy of the good” and is widely recognized as incredibly stupid.

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.


So, illegal immigrants are killing our farms even as they are the ones who mostly work the fields.

High food prices aren't caused by farmers raising the price because of illegal immigrants. It's due to corporate greed now.

And federal protections for birth control and gay marriage. And with Manchin out, I expect them to suspend the filibuster to make it happen. One of my dislikes of Biden is his refusal to do this. But Manchin and Siena made it irrelevant. Dems get unified control, no more nice.

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


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

Complains about cockiness while supporting Donald Trump 🤪

Yep. White women have made it known they will not vote for a woman president. More white women voted for a sexual predator than Hillary.

Don't hope, volunteer. You will feel better and do good.

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-Reagan. She was old enough to vote then.

A Bush was on one of those tickets.

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!


TL;DR: Accomplishments don’t matter if you’re a woman

Yeah, bullshit. Even if I accepted your premise that Harris was so terrible that she won election after election, how does one go from that to supporting a chaotic, serially bankrupt rapist like Trump? And it’s not about “Trump bad”, it’s about “WTF are you thinking?”
