Fact is abortion has nothing to do with governance. You cant legislate morality. You can make divorce illegal, but you cant force two people to love each other. I on't know why the right can never realize that.
Because with the right, it's always about having the power to force you to do what they want you to do, and control women and minorities. That's why the evangelical hypocrites and police unions are pro Trump.

Yes pro-life people on the right want to "control women and minorities" by letting them survive the womb. Maniacs to be sure.

The two aren't exclusive unless you have a poisoned, myopic view and see everything through a political lens.

Cool story.

They can call themselves whatever they like, but the Democratic Party is the party of abortion.

Finally, it’s hilarious that she criticized Trump for holding up a Bible, while she herself obviously doesn’t respect what it is or what it stands for.


Do you know how to properly hold a bible. I certainly do because I went to catholic schools all my life. Trump used it as a prop and disrespected it. I'm a democrat who supports a women's choice. Republicans want these kids born but don't want anything to do with them after that. So many families end up on welfare because they can't afford them. What is your plan for them.

I guess being a Christian is in the eye of the beholder.
Unfortunately, you’re absolutely right.

I'm not religious so this is all silliness to me, even when Republicans do it.
