    Will pay for IVF like he made Mexico pay for the wall?
  • Yes but jd Vance doesn't think rape is a crime, he said "its an inconvenience"
  • @cariad4297
    Abortion politics is tough? No it isn't you just tell the truth, rather than trying to appease everyone.
  • @johndowner2196
    Abortion shouldn't be political. Just mind your own damn business! It's between a woman and her doctor.
  • @smokefreehouse
    They will say WHATEVER it takes to get elected. Simple. You don't have to be a genius to understand this.
  • @akuaagyeiwaa2097
    Watch the reporter agreeing with him on 9 months abortion and nodding his head? Pathetic!
  • @mxmblngr
    The fact that CNN have to remind people that killing babies after birth is actually illegal in every state makes me laugh every time 😂
  • @spudsmackenzie13
    So it’s ok for Trump to flip on issues week to week but Harris can’t change her position on issues after learning during 3.5 years as VP? The hypocrisy of MAGA is ridiculous..
  • @Beatlearl
    The orange face Jesus fears the truth like Clark Kent fears kryptonite,he just can’t handle the truth 🤥🇺🇸🤔
  • @freebird968-wg4ye
    Accusing Harris of flip flopping is projection. He’s talking about himself.
  • @relaxgood5214
    No one believes him not even his own supporters. Everyone has figured out his sick and twisted games.
  • @IB_ESL-AshT
    It's exhausting watching these people do mental gymnastics trying to say what they think trump is saying or doing. Why not just look at it and take it at face value?????
  • @holyland6380
    When he said newborns are executed, he must be confused about 2 Samuel 12:18. Wait, did he actually read the bible?
  • @abe365
    Pro life people should pay more taxes and distribute that money to mothers who were forced to give birth. If you are forcing someone to give birth, then you should also pay for those babies or mind your damn business.
  • @Agoodlittlebot
    I would love to see a campaign ad where multiple family kitchen tables. The family has the news on and over and over they have to hit mute or turn it off because they’re so disgusted by what Trump is saying. It’s what I have to do if my children walk in the room. He’s so gross.
  • @nextaggin
    Bro.. Trump needs to just go. Like.. WE should be so embarrassed as a Country at this point 😂
  • Mexico didn’t pay one cent for the wall but we the taxpayers did !! Vote blue save our nation 🇺🇸🇺🇸💙
