    Good to see Democrats going on Fox News and bursting the bubble, letting MAGA see that they’ve been lied to. Maybe it will change some votes.

    MAGA doesn’t read the NYT or WaPo or ‘The Atlantic’ or watch MSNBC. Have to bring the arguments to them as Pete Buttigieg does so well.

    No, you lying fool. Healthcare is healthcare. They want to act like pregnant women are popping into their ghoulish doctors office at 8 months pregnant and saying “ya know Doc? I changed my mind”

    Abortion needs to be legal throughout pregnancy because medical problems happen. Catastrophic medical problems happen, and they need to be treated. Horrifically, this may require an abortion, but it’s not some vanity decision.

  3. “They may see this as an election issue. We see it as a right of women to make their own bodily decisions,” Walz said, pointing to recent deaths of women in [Texas](https://www.salon.com/2024/06/03/i-wasnt-enough-for-an-abortion-texas-mom-for-almost-losing-her-life/) and [Georgia](https://www.salon.com/2024/09/19/georgias-abortion-ban-a-young-mother-the-christian-right-now-the-victim/) who were delayed in seeking medically necessary procedures due to state-level restrictions. 

    “The real issue here is women being forced into miscarriages, women being forced to go back home, get sepsis, potentially die,” Walz said. “Maternal [mortality rates in Texas](https://www.salon.com/2024/06/27/texas-abortion-ban-causes-newborn-infant-mortality/) have skyrocketed off the charts because of this. This is bad policy.”

    It is no one’s fucking business why a woman decides to terminate a pregnancy.

    Don’t believe in abortion, don’t have one, no one will force you.
