“The president has been adamant that we need to restore Roe. It is unfathomable that women today wake up in a country with less rights than their ancestors had years ago,” Fulks said.
Biden has been poised to run on what has been described as the strongest abortion rights platform of any general election candidate as he and his allies look to notch a victory in the first presidential election since Roe v. Wade was overturned in 2022.
Last month, Biden seized on a case in Texas, where a woman, Kate Cox, was denied an abortion despite the risk to her life posed by her pregnancy.
“No woman should be forced to go to court or flee her home state just to receive the health care she needs,” Biden said of the case. “But that is exactly what happened in Texas thanks to Republican elected officials, and it is simply outrageous. This should never happen in America, period.”
Then why promise it
Because that’s how politics has worked for centuries. Is this your first day on planet Earth?
And why should anyone believe his empty worthless promises he has no intention of doing anything about this time?
We all know that Democrats don’t want to do shit about Roe. We know they’ll find just enough no votes, or find some procedural bullshit excuse, and of course they will never get rid of the filibuster.
I always wonder what proposal you people actually suggest that isn’t Joe Biden walking into the Senate with a gun and pointing it at Manchin.
I hadn’t thought of that but it might actually work.
President doesn’t need to point a gun at someone, just a TV camera and the willingness to actually fight for something.
Then explain to us morons what “prioritizing” abortion rights actually means. Because right now you’re saying there’s nothing he can do.
If he knows he can’t pass it and promises it anyway, why should we believe any of his promises? They’re not worth the barely tepid air he expended to make them.
And Trump didn’t repeal Obamacare or make Mexico pay for a wall. Welcome to politics; politicians tend to speak more in wish-lists than easily actionable items.
And if they did speak in easily actionable items OP would immediately claim he’s not going far enough and it’s a milquetoast solution.
Yes, Trump is full of shit. I’m not a Trump supporter. “Trump did it” is a shitty justification. Particularly from a party that refused to fire the parliamentarian in order to pass a minimum wage hike they don’t want to pass on the grounds that it’s what Republicans would do.
