The Senate once again took a vote on protecting IVF, but Trump—the self-proclaimed “leader on fertilization” who is never shy about forcing his Republicans to support or kill a bill—was nowhere to be found. All but two Republicans voted against the bill—and JD Vance skipped the vote. Sen. Laphonza Butler (D-CA) joins to discuss.

  • Yeah, cause blocking an IVF Bill during an election where that has been heavily highlighted as a major issue for voters is certain to do WONDERS for your campaign, Republicans! Keep up the good work! 😊 (This is obvious sarcasm btw)
  • @ckendall67
    Trump: claims to support & endorse IVF Republicans in Congress: vote AGAINST IVF Bill. MAGA politics at it's finest.
  • @maxchau6973
    Wait, we all know he'd rather run on a problem than solve it
  • @mikejohnson4617
    Trump's mouth is writing checks that GOP legislator's can't/won't cash. Same for his big, beautiful wall.
  • @dfrank3943
    By leader on fertilization, does he mean the amount of wives he has impregnated? 😂
  • @jackl4laughs
    The Democrats should push legislation called the "Stop Donald Trump from being Assas....." Bill. Put in a bunch of sensible firearms regulations most Americans agree on and push it on House Republicans asap. Then if they vote it down theyre supporting the assas....... of their hero Donald J Trump.
  • If someone had told Trump that the IV stood for Ivanka, I'm sure it would have passed.
  • How can a man who does not even have a basic middle-school understanding of science be a leader in IVF or anything to do with health care?
  • @OliverGarten
    “I’ve been a leader on fertilization”. He is not a smart man.
  • @Max14163
    Also trump, "I KNOW NOTHING about Project 2025!!!"
  • He stood up and told the Senate not to vote for the bipartisan border bill, but he was as quiet as a mouse to stand up for IVF. Disgusting. Another example that you cannot believe a word that comes out of this man’s mouth.
  • @carlosclara4759
    Trump is not a leader of IVF, He might try to sell fertilizers to farmers.😂💙💯🇺🇸🌊
  • If there was any doubt about IVF and reproductive rights it was answered today!
  • When is somebody going to step out from behind a curtain and tell us all we've just been on a very long episode of Candid Camera for the past decade?
  • @QuinnPrice
    Watch what people or groups do, not what comes out of their mouths.
  • @xlr8tedzoom
    All we need to do is vote DJT out. We will get so many perks. Trials, MAGA goes away, no more threats, and to save the GOP they will have to go back to being conservative again.
  • @user-iw6bu4iq4r
    If trump's grade school education results in trump not understanding something, its evil. If his narcissism tells trump that what he doesn't understand doesn't give him clout, its evil.
