All Trump does is lie
He is a flip flopping clown and a political whore who works for Russia 🇷🇺
The party that once accused Democrats of setting up death panels when they were trying to implement universal healthcare, are now literally running death panels in states like Texas. Forcing women to either leave the state for care or possibly die. Now Texas has a serious issue of babies just being abandoned. Those are just the ones they find alive.
Do you have a source for the abandoned babies?
This is just for Houston but a search will bring up articles about it throughout Texas. They are calling it an epidemic. https://www.fox26houston.com/news/just-left-die-houston-sees-500-increase-abandoned-babies-since-2022
Women should trust the guy that helped strike the biggest blow to woman's rights this century.
They should ignore he raped his wife, sexually assaulted thousands of women in his lifetime, and sexualized his own daughter.
Just because he brags about sexually assaulting women and pays pornstars for sex does not mean he doesn't respect women.
Trump is just misunderstood and women need to believe him when he says he is suddenly pro abortion. After all, he has paid for numerous abortions in his lifetime....
The sexualization of his daughter is perhaps the sickest bit here. In the testimony of the 13 year old that he groomed via epstein it was claimed he liked her because, "she was a virgin and reminded him of his daughter Ivanka"
I feel like the over the top weird vibes of Squid Games didn't actually go far enough when depicting the benefactors.
Paid*
Thanks
Harris is making a move on Florida by starting a bus tour there next week. The issue she will emphasize is abortion which is on the ballot. She will begin her bus tour in West Palm Beach.
I fucking love that they are doing bus tours and visiting small towns.
It just screams old-school high impact visits and we can thank Warnock for that. It was his idea to do this lol.
You can tell they did their homework and learned from state-wide key Senate races from Warnock to Baldwin in appealing to these battleground states. The sophistication of the Harris campaign makes Trump's look so damn amateur.
Nah, Trumps amateur run campaign makes it look amateur.
Children run lemonade stands with more competence and conviction than Trump's political campaign
Texas and Florida are within 5 points in polling. They are almost flippable. Either one would handily give Kamala a win.
I expect they see Florida as more up in the air or having stronger local issues that will drive turnout.
Trump won Texas by only 6% against Biden. At 5% it means he's slipping here. If the apathetic Texas Democrats can bother to get off their asses, they'd see this state flip. At the very least we can kick Fled Cruz to the curb. Hell, he's polling with less of a lead than when he won in 2018, too. Texas is primed to flip and show the DNC that they can take it from the GOP.
Why would American Women trust Kamala Harris, an American Woman, over Trump, a Convicted Rapist with multiple Wives who last month was Bragging about Overturning Roe V Wade? This is boggling my Mind!
You mean Donald Trump, who once said on tape that he was famous enough to get away with grabbing women by their genitalia? Seems like a pretty bad guy to trust, unless the thing you're trusting him to do is sexual assault
No that just means he has experience with women's genetalia. And means he speaks his mind, so I trust him. Or some shit.
Experience which we all know is the backbone of a good presidency, just look at James Buchanan
The problem, you see, was only the word he chose to use there, not the sexual assault itself. Just "locker room talk". All men, everywhere, while they are in the locker room - in between the towel-snapping and the ass-slapping that is - just casually talk about sexually assaulting women and the level to which they are allowed to get away with it. This is just common knowledge. They usually don't use words like "pussy", though, you see, so the national conversation was, as it should have been, only about the word itself, because, obviously, that was the only problematic part.
I have a friend that thinks Democrats are anti abortion and will absolutely not change her mind. Literally every thing she cares about she agrees with progressives on but was raised demonizing Democrats and is vehemently Republican. It's ridiculous how entrenched the brainwashing is for people when they can't even recognize this stuff.
It's a cult.
Like - y'know. A Cult.
Anti abortion? Am I reading that right?
Wait. Democrats are anti abortion? Then WTF are Republicans?
Yep. She also thinks Republicans are pro child welfare and pro drugs.
Yeah I was the same way as a kid, luckily that imploded once I had access to voting record from senators, congressfolk, and presidents. Its one of those things that probably originates back wehn the Republicans were lead by the progressive factions and the Democrats were led by the sputhern blue dogs. Ya get meemaw ranting about the evils of the Democrats and over the course of 80 years and some vaguely okay Republican presidents ya end up with dumbshit.
I cannot believe anyone would trust Donald on any issue other than backstabbing former allies or filling his pockets. Anyone who does would be the dumbest fucking human on the planet. I sincerely believe nobody trusts him and they just expect they have adequate leverage or will get out before they are thrown under the bus.
Trump waffling on this issue won't win him many voters, but it will depress turnout for those single-issue anti-abortion voters.
Trump is not to be trusted on anything. Period.
Somehow voters trust a party that's lied for 50 years to protect women's rights? How many times does someone need to be lied to for them to call out being lied to?
Apparently at least one more time
80 year old senile rapist male not trusted by women on women’s issues over an actual woman? I’m shocked!
Trump's political instincts aren't what they used to be. Giving ground on an issue, no matter how unpopular your position is, only helps your opponent because it tells low information voters "actually the other side was right about this all along and I'm bad on this issue." Unlike the DNC, which has never seen a position it would defend, the GOP usually has the political savvy to barge through, polling be damned, since the only thing the american electorate respects is strength. Glad to see them screwing the pooch, especially on this issue, but VERY odd for both Trump or the GOP overall to make this kind of DNC-flavored error of spinelessness that only helps the other party both structurally on the issue and during the election at hand.
Glad to see them screwing the pooch
These days we call that pumping the couch.
Yeah, don't trust the guy on reproductive rights because, uh, he bragged about putting Heritage Foundation judges onto the court so that they could STEAL YOUR RIGHTS.
In fact, I would not trust him on anything, but this one is a no-brainer since he's the leader of a party that has made it their mission for 50 years steal the rights of women away.
If they can go backwards on abortion, they'll do it to anything. And the shameless nature with which they are doing it, lying the whole time, we can see who they are.
Republican voters will see what they want to see.
None of these things actually matter to most of them.
It's about sucking up to the rich so they maybe let them into the club.
Excluding other races so the line for the club will get shorter.
Punishing the people who believe a better club everyone could fit inside of is possible because what if they waited in line this long and fucked over and alienated this many people for nothing.
It's sad you can spend a lifetime never getting through to people, even those closest to you. Some things just don't have two sides. That, or the compromises are too much to still be considered civil.
now why on earth would anyone think that captain "grab'em by the pussy" doesn't care more about women's rights than everyone who ever lived
Why would anyone trust the lying lier who is tied to PJ2025 on this issue and has a crazy, misogynistic, pro-breeding VP nom?
Republicans are so inconsistent on their ideals and morals
They are consistent that all that matters to them is power, supremacy of the in-group and binding of the outgroups.
Only the ones they claim, not the ones they exemplify
I said it before and I'll say it again: If you are a woman and you vote for Trump, you are not a woman. How can you vote for someone who doesn't have our best interests at heart? How can you vote for someone who sees us as no more than a body to be fucked and make babies? Why is your self-esteem so low? Why do you not value yourself more? You are capable of more than what they are telling you!
