Trump has said he'd veto a national abortion ban, for whatever that's worth. And to answer your question, to most peo-life activists, abortion is murder. It's black and white to them.

He's wildly unpopular outside of his circle of influence. I think he even lost support in CA this year. That doesn't mean they won't try to force him anyway.
Anyone giving odds on whether or not they'll hold a fair primary in 2028?
I start work at 4 am. I do work 4a - 8p one day a week but some days I'm done by noon. Usually by 1:30pm. I'd love to show up at his office at 4:30 am and post, "where's the hustle?"
Fix the 99% working lives. If Dems can't get us a living wage back, what the hell are they good for?
I guess I'm Americaning wrong. As far as painkillers go, 've only taken one ibuprofen in the last year. I even had a severe gut pain event where they prescribed me some oxy but I never took anything.
You'd be surprised.
True, but apparently there a lot of white women who voted for Trump anyway. As usual, the rich and attractive ones will always get laid.
I constantly bring up school lunch programs but I get downvoted on sites like this because I choose unpopular context. For example, Biden spent money on something, I say - he could have funded school lunches, but instead lunch ladies get to go back to collecting food debt.
When you're struggling to feed your kids, yeah, mine is on the list. That doesn't mean I don't help other people but our government taxes the struggling and literally sets cash on fire as a thank you.
It was the stupidest of ideas. Republicans were never going to vote for her in any numbers. She was all about gun control, she personally owned the 12 million border crossings, she had all those defund the police sound bites from her earlier years, and she couldn't effectively separate herself from the difficult economy for middle and low earners - while failing to communicate that she even cared about the common man's plight or would try to help it. Even her proposed tax plan raised taxes on lower middle class, at least the charts I saw (including here on Lemmy). And Republicans have seen four years of Trump and think all the Nazi and "all Republicans are racist" talk is literally the stupidest thing on the earth. Abortion was all Dems really had, and although lots of Republicans are pro-choice, Trump had promised to veto a national abortion ban (for whatever that's worth).
I remember when Democrats were for the working people. They need to stop being "We're not the Nazis"and start telling us who they are. But I don't think they want to tell us who they are. They're no longer the party of the working man, they're the party of corporate interest and global governance, and they're also almost as authoritarian as the right. Maybe the collapse of the Democrat party will result in the birth of an actual socialist party in the US. We've seen major party changes in the past. Will it happen again, soon?
If I walked or cycled to get around I'd actually die. These roads are deadly if you're not zooming around in at least a two ton cage.
