You shouldn’t have to file a police report or be seriously ill to get an abortion. Fuck the GOP’s stance on abortion.

That’s Trump’s stance on abortion. GOP stance is: you’re not an American if you support ANY abortion publicly.

probably not even his stance on abortion.

"Yeah... i support exceptions for, uh, rape, and stuff... ". the boos were because he didn't make the winking obvious enough for the troglodytes in the back.

[–] adespoton@lemmy.ca 16 points 1 month ago (1 children)

He’s been on the record in the past fully supporting abortion; I believe it’s a service family members of his have used more than once.

Also probably "dates" of his.

[–] ripcord@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

His stance on abortion is:

"What will benefit me personally the most"?

[–] leisesprecher@feddit.org 6 points 1 month ago

The American way is to have children die of preventable diseases because they can't afford healthcare or by school shooting.

They don't think you're human if you support abortion. They see you as some sort of serial killer. It's absolutely batshit crazy.

[–] Eatspancakes84@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

Lol at GOP writing a law where a police report is sufficient. They will only include a rape/incest allowance if there’s a conviction. Of course that will never happen in time, so the exception becomes meaningless.

This. Only this.
