President Donald Trump - J.D. Vance Administration

[appvol]

Opinion piece in the NYT. But reads like a Liberal wish list.

How many of our resident Progressives would be in favor of a “New” Constitution? I’m betting EL & Bearded, probably Ribs and at least a few more.

You know @evillawyer would. It’s about absolute power for these leftist elitist.

lol all you have had the last 10 years is we got him now.

Obama did say “cut it out.” And that was after being on a hot mic saying he’d have “more flexibility” to Medvedev to relay to Putin.

 

[Majors]

Bet he doesn’t wear a track suit.

Your TDS has really gone off the charts in recent months.

I have TDS because I acknowledge Trump is confused about Russia?

"You have TDS" is a losing argument.

 

[BernardKingGOAT]

lol you think crime and people felling unsafe is authoritarian to do something about it. What about the people in DC that are happy it’s happening

Trump firing a statistician because he didn't like the the numbers and then issuing an order to only release the job numbers quarterly is a textbook move of an authoritarian

 

[DinkinFlicka]

I fully acknowledge that. It is an extremely difficult issue to wrap one's head around.

So... for the sake of discussion... Is unborn life innocent or not? It either is or it isn't. If a woman is raped and a child results, is the unborn child to blame and does it deserve to be killed? I won't even bring up the concept of 'murder' when talking about unborn babies. I think that is a moral issue that really doesn't matter in this context. Is killing the unborn life justified simply because it was the result of a criminal act? Is incest criminal if there is consent? I bring that up because those seem to be the two 'exceptions' that the pro life side allows. So now let's go back to the top. Is unborn life innocent or not?

I don't believe innocence is a factor here. It's a fetus.

 

[DinkinFlicka]

I am, if you believe abortion is murder, it matters not at all how the pregnancy occurred. Unless of course you believe the unborn should suffer capital punishment due to actions of the father.

It's all about phrasing. I don't believe a rape victim should have to carry a fetus to term because they were unable to fend off being raped.

Crazy, I know.

 

[DinkinFlicka]

Can you prevent the following phrase from negating the entire law: “I was raped”

If not, then yes, I oppose such exemptions.

If an investigation determines someone was indeed raped, your argument holds little weight.

The list of posters liking this post is a dead giveaway of how limp dicked with the absence of critical thinking it is.

I had no idea that a 'blumpkin' could be considered a "ceremonial present".

same as with this post… just kidding @BernardKingGOAT

Man, "TDS" really touches a nerve with you.

This is what the fall of the Roman empire must have felt like. America is the weakest it has been in a long long time.

Glad we got rid of DEI so we could get back to hiring unqualified nepo baby white lackeys.

Crazy, I know.

The problem with "life begins at conception and is sacred from that point" is that human reproduction isn't very efficient naturally.

About 50% of conceptions never develop into a birth. Many never implant. Many never survive the first month. Naturally. No intervention.

If we're honoring the sanctity of the life of that fertilized egg from conception, should we not also honor those who never implant or survive long after being implanted? How far do we carry this?

Should a couple trying to have a child be forced to save the woman's menses on the possibility we're dishonoring the sanctity of an unimplanted, but conceived, baby? Why not? Where does sanctity begin for this child?

Libs getting excited over the itinerary. Meeting with Putin and eating filet mignon.

Trump doing the yank handshake at the start to establish dominance over Putin.

So first investigate every claim and by the time that’s done we end up killing viable children for the sins of their father?

there is 0 moral obligation for any woman who claims to have been raped to carry a child beyond the embryonic stage so whats the point of an investigation?

Should we enforce ectopic pregnancies?

God deals in miracles, maybe that otherwise fatal pregnancy will work out

Forget about fake claims for a moment.

Actual instances of rape where the victim is impregnated by her attacker - force her to carry the viable baby to term?

Sure. Seems reasonable.

Rape victims shouldn't have to carry the fetus to term. Arguing otherwise is a stupid hill to die on.

Not really. It was a lazy response. I detest lazy thinking.

You think lazily.

Don't overstim him. He's close to invoking a rapist as a champion of creation as is.
