Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., criticized Sen. JD Vance, R-Ohio, on Sunday over his claim that former President Donald Trump would veto a federal abortion ban if elected president.

“American women are not stupid,” Warren said during an interview on NBC’s "Meet the Press." “We’re not going to trust the futures of our daughters and granddaughters to two men who have openly bragged about blocking access to abortion.”

Vance, who is the GOP vice-presidential nominee, suggested earlier in the program that Trump would veto a federal abortion ban, stressing that Trump prefers to leave the issue to the states. “I think he would,” Vance said when asked if Trump would reject a nationwide ban. “He’s said that explicitly that he would.”

Warren, like many of the Republican ticket's critics, wasn't buying it. She argued that even if Trump doesn’t sign a federal ban, that the former president would still restrict abortion rights. Warren pointed to the Comstock Act, a century-old law banning the mailing of abortion-related materials, which some Republicans have hinted could be revived to restrict abortion nationwide.

10. It only applies to Democrats

They even gave Poppy a pass after his infamous "Read my lips..." promise.

11. The rights of the people aren't determined at the state leivel

The rights to privacy, bodily autonomy and to the freedom to make decisions about family and health issues don't depend on whether the legislature, courts and governor in any particular state happen to want to abridge those fundamental rights, or happen to respect them in another. It's unconstitutional for individual states to abridge the rights of the people.

We need to heal our courts with term limits and a couple of impeachments.
