Gotta admit Trump has a point, do the American people really want Venezuelan Hannibal Lecter to get a transgender operation in prison then give birth to a dog-eating baby who is killed after birth? The next president needs to do something about that.

I'm seeing so many Republican women talking about a national abortion ban as a Democratic 'scare tactic' - they're repeating the GOP talking point that they'll never have enough votes for a federal ban. So let me tell you why that doesn't matter & they can ban abortion anyway
