With regard to T Rump and his statement on abortion. [View all]

Now is the perfect time to pounce. He just gave us our in. The simple fact is that we are already on that slippery slope to criminalizing abortion. The Pubes have passed hundreds, yes, literally hundreds of laws limiting abortion and if you cut to the chase, they want to make it illegal. Period.

So here's the rub, why doesn't the Democratic Party come out and say it: The Republican Party wants to have a national database that monitors women's menstrual cycles.

Because when you get down to it, with some states allowing abortions, for now, and with abortificant type drugs available, not to mention (CRUDITY ALERT) coat hangers etc., how the hell else can they enforce their ridiculous laws to control women? The Democrats need to pound home this database and when they say it is absurd, which they will, there are easy follow up comments like: do you or don't you support abortion bans? Then how are you going to enforce it? Are you going to monitor google searches for abortificants?

Then we should bring it on home with reality:

If you are truly against abortion then you should be for trying to minimize the conditions under which a woman chooses to have an abortion. Things like family leave would help, but the Repubes are against it. Free day care, against it. Birth control access, against it. Sex education, against it. Universal health care, against it. A living wage, against it. Equal pay, against it. A higher minimum wage, against it.

You see, the Democratic Party is actually the party that is trying to limit abortions by making women's lives better. The Republicans want to put women in jail.

Wash, rinse, repeat.
