    I literally said it would be rare. But no limits on abortion is a slippery slope that even most on the left will not slide down.

    You don't think there are women who would be pressured by oppressive men to have very late term abortions?

    You dont think an angry (racist perhaps) parent wouldn't try to strong arm a young woman into a late term abortion?

    I never said you couldnt still have very specific (imminent life of mother for instance) allowances.

    But i was responding to what appeared to be a willy nilly comment stating it should have zero restrictions under any circumstances and that is crazy.

    Of course not. But I think it’s gonna be tough to paint this guy as some sort of radical lib. Former military, gun-loving football coach.

    Yep, hasn't been that many years ago dems championed abortion as 'it should be safe, legal and rare'...this is the evil camel's nose under the tent.

    Providing easier access to contraception and other forms of healthcare. Abortion rates had been decreasing for decades until Republicans got what they wanted in the court system...and the rate increased.

    Despite new criticism, Trump told Walz in 2020 he was 'very happy' with his handling of George Floyd protests

    It looks like Walz is scaring the hell out of them. Although he won't actually flip that demographic a reasonable inference is that the right-wing infotainers are really concerned that the presence of Walz on the ticket could cut into Trump's margin among white male blue collar workers in the swing states.
