Killing future women is extreme.

I do agree politics should not be involved. Therefore, people should pay for it themselves instead of having it subsidized.

Va. arm of Planned Parenthood to spend $3 million backing Northam for governor

Planned Parenthood’s Virginia affiliate plans to spend $3 million to help elect Democrat Ralph Northam as the state’s next governor.

...
Abrams accused Northam of “extreme positions supporting abortions in the eighth or ninth month,” an apparent reference to the Democrat’s refusal to back efforts to ban late-term abortions.

I think the extreme pertains to the "choice " of allowing the other human being in the equation to live.

Even though there have been a few who advocate a broader late term option the rights view of no option at all is a potentially greater danger to health options. Combine this with a trend of selecting overtly conservative candidates for the republican ticket and you will see the democrats continue to be voted in.

I see nothing extreme about allowing medical decisions to remain between a doctor and their patient. The only ones who do are those who are interested in controlling women.

Late term abortions remain extremely rare, and I don't see that changing. So, no, this will have no effect on 2020.

The "kill babies" thing is a lie, a straw man, and is completely made up.
The vast majority of reasonable voters know it's a ruse and won't believe this nonsense.
That's why I voted "no difference."

Never saw the video, eh?

If you watch the video of Tran, you will see that her bill does away with some of the very modest and common sense measures that are in place. In reality there is actually a concerted push happening with democrats and the abortion industry to do exactly that .
