Chill out, Trump is on your side when it comes to abortion.

Lol, no he's not. Are you forgetting the fact that he'll pick some pro-life ideologue for the Supreme Court?

Democrats have been saying that since at least the 90s.  But somehow, the abortion industry always emerges unscathed.

Abortion is down -- way down. Maybe it is because fewer women are getting raped. Maybe it is because people got more optimistic while Obama was President.

Abortion is a desperate choice. It involves either a desperate medical situation or extreme economic distress. Nobody has an abortion for the fun of it. Even those who have an abortion for the reason of life or health of the mother can feel some combination of guilt and grief.

Outlawing abortion in America implies that American females will go elsewhere -- across the borders -- to get abortions. But in any event, stare decisis prevails.

Shrieking, shrill feminists fear mongering.

Do they really think that mean mouthing the President of the United States is going to further their agenda?

Agreed...a rapist and sexual abuser like Trump will not listen to them

It's to ensure that Donald Trump cannot be effective in ramming a on-to-the-Twenties agenda (making the 2020s look much like the 1920s, a slum of a decade). It is to start the political organization that can take him down in 2020.

There will be other interest groups -- ethnic minorities seeing themselves squeezed, environmentalists, advocates for high-quality education, and industrial workers who don't want poverty -- who will resist a bossy, insensitive, extremist President. Maybe peace activists should there be a looming threat of a War for Profits... like taking over Venezuela to divvy up the state-owned oil company?

Donald Trump offers much to fear and loathe. The concept that we must all defer to the harshest demands of a plutocratic elite just to survive has been tried -- and found wanting.

1. That would be a lot more believable if a quick google search did not reveal plenty of people who think of abortion as a positive good.
2. Much of your party is in denial about the psycholocial consequences of an abortion, so your lecturing the wrong crowd.

Outlawing abortion in America implies that American females will go elsewhere -- across the borders -- to get abortions. But in any event, stare decisis prevails.  

Making it less socially acceptable to get an abortion is in itself a victory.



I wish that Adolf Hitler, Saddam Hussein, and Charles Manson had been aborted.

The mass rallies criticizing Trump and GOP policies have started at a far earlier stage in this Presidency than the Tea Party rallies under former President Obama.
