RockyRoadTravel Posted July 7 Posted July 7 The extremists within the MAGA wing of the GOP create chaos and obstruction in all legislative branches of government, and then attempt to govern through the Courts, who have life time appointments. It's the back door to the authoritarian regime that the MAGA financial backers dream of. stevenkesslar 1 Quote

Much like any issue, prevention is the way to go rather than obsessing after that fact over something that often could have been prevented. The extremists hate abortion so much then what are they proposing to prevent unwanted pregnancies? Spoiler alter - nothing. The best way to reduce abortion rates is to prevent unwanted pregnancies. And no I'm not suggesting hanging photos of the defeated former President in every classroom. Federal mandates that birth control is universally available Sex education and health information in all schools Paid parental leave Expanded childcare services in both urban and rural settings In the USA where abortions are being outlawed and criminalized the abortion rate is 15.9/1000 women. In Canada where abortions are considered a medical issue between a woman and her doctor, and are fully covered by universal health insurance the rate is 12.3/10000 women. Government control over women's bodies isn't the answer (MAGA extremists), prevention and supporting families is a far better answer. stevenkesslar 1 Quote

Abortion will certainly be top-of-mind for female voters, however, Biden needs more than female voters to win this election. It is unbelievable to me that Americans, knowing who Trump is , what he stands for and what he will do, are still eager and willing to hand him the keys to the Kingdom... Something is VERY wrong with this country, but I dont think its something that Trump will fix ? On a different note Amber Rose, Kanye's ex, cam out in support of MAGA and Trump. She says shes all in, and as a public figure, and a WOMAN, I find her declaration despicable... She certainly aint taking the populist opinion in Hollywood, but the position of all the washed-up, hasbeen, no talent Trash in her community. I hope she gets "cancelled"..... Quote
