    Two Arizona supreme court justices who voted in favor of the ban, justices Bolick and King, will be up for retention vote in November. These two will get voted out allowing the Gov. Hobbs to appoint two new justices onto the supreme court.

      Donald Trump will not sign a national abortion “ban” unless it’s something like a 15-20wk ban plus life of mother and baby, which you guys still call a national abortion ban. He was a NY democrat for most of his life and has never been against abortion. If nothing else he has good instincts which tells him that this is a losing topic.

    There is a middle ground. From a policy perspective, it is the policy platform of the Democratic party. Republicans have skewed so far to the extreme right ideologically (dipping into the realm of fascism) , that it would appear that typical moderate, common sense positions held by Democrats are left leaning, but really, if one considers popular opinion on many of the primary issues that Americans care about, positions held by Democratic politicos are in line with the majority of Americans desires. That is "Middle Ground."

  • @Keepitkind7

    Politicians can't find a middle ground, but most Americans can. As far as I hear, most are satisfied with a three month time period in which to get one. Prolifers can still reach out to mother's individually, with choices like adoption, which is a good option for some.

  • @GypsyCurls
    @GypsyCurls Před 2 měsíci +1

    I’m sorry. You should not be able to put restrictions of any time on it. That is left up to the mother and her doctor. No one that is beyond a certain point has ever said, I change my mind and I am 6 months pregnant, I want to terminate it. NO ONE in their right minds. And no doctor would perform one. The only woman getting a late term abortion is one where the life of the mother is truly at stake or the fetus is no longer viable, or etc. This shouldn’t be a conversation our government is having, let alone having to vote on. If you make them safe, legal, affordable and accessible, then women can decide when they are still mostly in the first trimester to terminate an unwanted pregnancy.

    • @madge2114

    This is a non issue and is always used as a wedge issue to distract us from what really matters.
    And those two issues are White demographic collapse I.e immigration and black crime ruining our once safe cities.
    That’s what matters and what the voters care about.

      If it's a non-issue why do Rs CONSTANTLY attack it, try to control it, try to enslave women?? What even is white demo collapse? Are you expressing fear over a shrinking white majority? You somehow think THAT'S important??? And not control over one's own body?

      Now you’re just making stuff up. Those are not even remotely the major issues.

    The AZ Supreme Court should have ruled on the 2022 bill. Not some law that was made when AZ was a territory. This is a simple fix. Vote trump and vote for the abortion bill. They aren't tied together. Biden isn't worth another term.
