“The president has been adamant that we need to restore Roe. It is unfathomable that women today wake up in a country with less rights than their ancestors had years ago,” Fulks said.
Biden has been poised to run on what has been described as the strongest abortion rights platform of any general election candidate as he and his allies look to notch a victory in the first presidential election since Roe v. Wade was overturned in 2022.
Last month, Biden seized on a case in Texas, where a woman, Kate Cox, was denied an abortion despite the risk to her life posed by her pregnancy.
“No woman should be forced to go to court or flee her home state just to receive the health care she needs,” Biden said of the case. “But that is exactly what happened in Texas thanks to Republican elected officials, and it is simply outrageous. This should never happen in America, period.”
Abortion rights are super fucking important, but frankly, I’ll just settle for “not snatching defeat from the jaws of victory”, which the Democrats are basically world champions at.
He’s working really fucking hard at ensuring his defeat with Netanyahu’s help. I’d be disgusted with his self-sabotage even if I didn’t care about Palestinians.
Literally the only way he could try and lose more voters is to go full beto and tell Americans hes coming for their guns. You can be mad at the fact, but if you deny that that would lose him votes you’re delusional.
If the Democrats could STFU about guns and actually start addressing systemic injustices, abortion rights, the right to repair, they’d crush the Republican party into the dirt while also reducing shootings and taking back ground lost to Reaganism.
But they won’t, because that’s not what the “donors” actually want.
Are there any pro life democrats still or did they all disappear after roe fell? I know they were still around during Hillary’s campaign in 2016, so my question has been if it was acceptable for Dems to take a soft line on abortion as late as 2016, why in the world can we not have dems with different views on guns and immigration. BOTH those areas are tribal devoid of nuance, as soon as people hear nuance that resonates with them on those issues is when they break out of the polar tribalism of party politics, and not a second sooner. I feel like you’re implying what I have come to understand is true, the democrats financial backers do not want the democrats to win every election. Id wager at least half those financiers also finance republicans, which would necessarily mean there’s at least one party they fund they want to lose.
