Trump did this! NEW: The Arizona Supreme Court ruled Tuesday that a 160-year-old near-total abortion ban still on the books in the state is enforceable, a bombshell decision that adds the state to the growing lists of places where abortion care is effectively banned. This is more of what Trump is "proud" of doing!! https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/arizona-supreme-court-ruling-abortion-ban-rcna146915

AMERICAN WOMEN: “We will be the ones who get rid of Donald Trump” and we will be “honored” to have done so.

Yesterday was a terrible day for those of us who recognize the evil narcissist within DJT. How American Women can vote for him, I have no idea. How Baby Boomers whose fathers fought in WW2 (like mine) can vote for this horrible man is also beyond me. He does not care one millimeter for those who fought in the Military in these last wars - including the last two begun by a Republican president whose popular vote was less than that of Al Gore. Then - Rachel Maddow pointed out that Trump's lawyers LIED regarding Trump's inability to get backing for a bond in the case brought by the very smart Letitia James. The Man who offered Trump the $175 million coverage has said that he had previously offered the funds to cover the $475 million - he has stated this publicly and proudly - so Trump & his Lawyers LIED! Why are we going to elect a man who lies. There is no god. But I am truly considering ending my life if Trump is elected. I cannot live through that evil regime from which there will be no turning back if he is elected.

Amy, We have no intention whatsoever of sitting by if this Psychotic nut case is cheated in again. This is not 2015. We did not know trump would hug Nazi rhedtoric, attempt a deadly coup, murder cops, kill millions from vaccine denial, be convicted of rape, be impeached twice, and have 91 indictments pending ON TOP OF THAT. We did not know he would for e unqualified/corrupt judges on SCOTUS, federal judge positions and take away women’s rights, LGBTQIA rights, try to return black & brown people to pre-civil rights era on and on. The media was bought out by ultra right wingers! Remember that! They are lying to you now to discourage you. There are FAR more of us. And we will prove it, so come and join your multi-millions of like-minded aquaintences.

Just so everyone understands the Arizona Supreme Court decision that imposed a total abortion ban was brought by Republicans. The Alliance Defending Freedom-the GOP backed group that the current GOP Speaker of the House Mike Johnson once worked--filed the suit and argued for the ban. The total abortion ban in Arizona is 100% because of Trump and the GOP.

Digging a little deeper into this issue, it was actually the (un)supreme court that overturned roe v. wade. But, by taking credit himself for that action, THE ALWAYS-WHINING, BIG FAT, CORRUPT, DEMENTED, INCOMPETENT, RACIST, SEXIST, SERIAL ADULTERER, LYING RAPIST, AND NAZI admitted that he personally controls 6 of the supreme court justices, a terrifying admission that he commands another supposedly independent and co-equal branch of our national government.

Right on the mark. I love how you used all Caps for the descriptive words so accurately describing this EVIL MAN. There truly is no God. I cannot bear that my father and so many other men risked their Lives in WW2 and in the following wars for a Country possibly to be electing a Dictator who has no respect for the men and women who have fought in war. I am getting physically and mentally sick from seeing him lie. Innocent people are dying all over the world & he just gets richer and more convinced that he is entitled to the power he seeks. Thank you for your response which gives me some hope.

How can anyone be uncommitted when we've seen time and time again what happens when people give Republicans power? Has failing to vote affirmatively for the Democratic party ever made things better? Did voting for a third party ever result in a better outcome? Was sending a message to Gore worth what Bush did? Was standing on a soapbox and shaking a fist at "...the corrupt Democratic party establishment..." keep Trump from appointing the Supreme Court Justices that brought us to where we are now?

I am quite convinced that his conniving to end Roe v Wade is going to be the tombstone of his political career. Though I’d rather see his actual tombstone. We aim to please! You aim too, please! When I heard him lie that Democrats do post natal abortions, I could have slapped the dentures out of him.

Do, Trump was “honored to kill Roe, and “honored” to impose a nationwide abortion ban. And I am truly honored to cast my vote for his Democratic opponent.

If men are so fixated on controlling women’s bodies, why can’t we turn the tables on them? Can’t we file suit to prevent men from having vasectomies and access to erectile dysfunction medication? After all, vasectomies limit the possibility of pregnancy and ED drugs are mostly used for pure pleasure.

THAT might get their attention?

Expand full comment

If they are taking away our rights to make decisions about our bodies, I agree, turn those tables! How about creating a national database, where all males are required to register their DNA. If they get someone pregnant, they can easily be identified and their wages will be garnished to support the life of the child. It’s time to introduce legislation that gets all up in men’s business, and see how they feel about it. If for no other reason than to scare the s*** out of them and/or make a point not to mess with women.

Exactly! I could predict the “invasion of privacy” argument would commence after a mere mention of plans like this. Women’s privacy, with regard to making our own healthcare decisions with our doctors, is an egregious invasion of privacy.

Oh totally.

To think that some creep like Moses Mike or Ladybug Graham wants to be in the docs office with women discussing their bodies and their damn lives. Makes me FURIOUS.

We will be playing their game much more than they’ll expect.

I go further. It’s the men that require regulation. I’m for automatic vasectomies upon failure to pay child support even one time. I’m actually in favor of mandatory vasectomies at puberty to be reversed when a man shows he can be a father. It’s the men that need regulating. Do this and there is no need for abortion.

There will always be a need for abortion - not to get rid of unwanted pregnancies, but to deal with things like fatal genetic anomalies or protect the mother's health. There will always be miscarriages and other things beyond the pregnant woman's control that will necessitate abortion. I am not pro-abortion, merely a realist about biological issues. And I believe in a female's right to life.

Thank you for this piece. It is right on the money. I hope the loser keeps flapping that heinous mouth. I think he did himself in yesterday, but keep on talking, orange menace. And the Biden digital ad has me in tears every time. Powerful and true. I can’t wait to vote against this monster.

Trump's attempt to appear moderate did nothing to win him any votes, in fact betraying his right wing evangelical lunatic fringe, even if a lie, might have lost him votes from the abortion absolutists. But that's not the issue. The issue is that Trump killed Roe and with it more than a few women who live in red states. Democrats have the receipts, and they need to make Trump and his MAGA enablers pay in November.

TFG, as a malignant narcissist, it is more accurate to say that “Trump only cares about himself, and his base feeds his insatiable need to be validated.”

As someone who was involved in Issue 1 in the backwater state of Ohio, these radical bans can be overturned but it’ll take work. Lots of work.

We, too, had marijuana legalization also on our ballot and we still only reached 58% approval.

60% is a tall order.

Women of Az and Fl- no one is coming to rescue you. Forget marching. Organize, or join one, knock on doors, register voters, send out postcards, go to the college campuses… make every single student aware, push the vote.

And Vote Out Every Republican.

Humpty Dumpty TFG is the leading cause of WCN religious impositions on Americans. Their biblically based superstitions will result in a Taliban style theocracy in America unless they are stopped.

Think about public stonings, hangings and mutilations in addition to the healthcare, education and women’s rights limitations already being carried out under the color of law in your community. The theocratic groundwork is already being laid by your local and State GOP adherents in red states and the People there are already feeling the effects.

If you don’t want those things don’t vote for Humpty Dumpty TFG.

Dean, I disagree with one statement you made: "Trump only cares about his base." Trump only cares about himself. He will do and say anything to appease, embolden, or enrage his base, but he only cares about himself.

I wish you would have also included the time tRump said that women needed to be prosecuted for having an abortion. Does anyone else remember that?
