if i’m wrong, tell

I'm not aware of anyone wanting unlimited abortion or totally open borders. Some want Medicare for all, some want to improve the system we have, the Green New Deal wasn't policy it is a direction to start a debate and the war on God is just a rallying cry.

Nixon won 49 states, his map was redder than Trumps.
Electoral votes 520 to 17 for McGovern
States carried 49 he only lost Massachusetts
Popular vote Percentage 60.7% that's the widest of any US presidential election

History repeats

He was gone within weeks after the motion to impeach was sent to the floor of the house.

"I have never been a quitter. To leave office before my term is completed is abhorrent to every instinct in my body. But as president, I must put the interest of America first...Therefore, I shall resign the presidency effective at noon tomorrow."

The current Con-man doesn't have the respect for the Office and the Constitution that Nixon had.

Never heard them say explicitly until birth for any reason. The party platform is to support Roe.

I wonder what these child activists claiming their future has been stolen from them by adults think of abortion?

they said the choice is the moms, the government should stay out of
it. meaning, they support the right if the moms to abort until
birth.

and why shouldn’t they? if the issue centers around the moms bodily self autonomy, why wouldn’t you support abortion until
birth? it’s still the moms
body. can you explain? it makes zero sense. zip.

Jim,
Abortions at more than 24 weeks are around 1%
Abortion numbers have been going down consistently
Meanwhile, Infant mortality is worse in the US than any of the G20
Birthweight is decreasing
Average birth cost is over 30K, the highest in the world
You can ask your physician why late term abortions are necessary, he likely can explain the reasons they are performed better than I.
There is far more that can be done for life than trying to legislate medical procedures and reducing the availability of birth control.

But building a moat, filling it with alligators and snakes and shooting border crossers is ok. Just in the legs
