Two Statements On Women's Reproductive Rights




Vice President Kamala Harris blasted the Malignant Loser's role as the "architect of this crisis" that began with the overturning of Roe v. Wade by his Supreme Court appointees. Speaking in Atlanta yesterday, Harris pointed to Amber Thurman's death after waiting hours for treatment for complications from taking abortion pills, and called out the Malignant Loser:

“'This is a health-care crisis. And Donald Trump is the architect of this crisis,' Harris said during her most comprehensive speech on abortion since starting her presidential campaign two months ago. 'He brags about overturning Roe v. Wade — in his own words, quote, ‘I did it and I’m proud to have done it.’ He says he is proud. Proud that women are dying, proud that doctors and nurses could be thrown in prison for administering care and proud that young women today have fewer rights than their mothers and grandmothers?'  [snip]

'These hypocrites want to start talking about this is in the best interest of women and children,' she said. 'Well, where you been? Where you been when it comes to taking care of the women and children of America? Where you been? How dare they? How dare they?'”  [snip]

She often refers to 'Trump abortion bans' and points out that a large percentage of women live in states where most abortions have been deemed illegal. She has regularly asserted that Trump would take steps as president to further restrict access to reproductive care, claiming that the former president’s allies have plans to limit abortions via executive action and to monitor women’s pregnancies." (our emphasis)

The Malignant Loser was apparently triggered by Harris' speech, because just before midnight, he posted an all-caps delusional, lie-filled rant on his failing social media site, which claimed if he's elected:

"WOMEN WILL BE HAPPY, HEALTHY, CONFIDENT AND FREE! YOU WILL NO LONGER BE THINKING ABOUT ABORTION, BECAUSE IT IS NOW WHERE IT ALWAYS HAD TO BE, WITH THE STATES, AND A VOTE OF THE PEOPLE - AND WITH POWERFUL EXCEPTIONS, LIKE THOSE THAT RONALD REAGAN INSISTED ON, FOR RAPE, INCEST, AND THE LIFE OF THE MOTHER - BUT NOT ALLOWING FOR DEMOCRAT DEMANDED LATE TERM ABORTION IN THE 7TH, 8TH, OR 9TH MONTH, OR EVEN EXECUTION OF A BABY AFTER BIRTH. I WILL PROTECT WOMEN AT A LEVEL NEVER SEEN BEFORE. THEY WILL FINALLY BE HEALTHY, HOPEFUL, SAFE, AND SECURE. THEIR LIVES WILL BE HAPPY, BEAUTIFUL, AND GREAT AGAIN!" (our emphasis)

One lie after another. He wants you to think that red state abortion laws permit abortions in the cases of rape, incest, or the life of the mother. He wants you to think that Dems "demand" execution of a baby after birth. Finally, he wants you to believe that he'll "protect women at a level never seen before," perhaps the biggest lie of all from an adjudicated rapist and predator who has made a pact with the corrupt Christofascist movement to pass a nationwide abortion ban if elected.

The contrast between the candidates couldn't be more stark.
